HEARING: September 6, 2001; at 11:00 a.m. APPEARANCES: The Complainant failed to appear. The Respondent failed to appear. ADMINISTRATIVE LAW JUDGE: M. Douglas
This matter came on for rehearing on September 6, 2001, pursuant to notice sent to all parties. The Complainant failed to appear and the Respondent failed to appear. Based upon the entire record, the following Findings of Fact, Conclusions of Law and Recommended Order on Rehearing are made: FINDINGS OF FACT 1. The Complainant failed to present any evidence at the rehearing in support of the allegations set forth in the Complaint herein. CONCLUSIONS OF LAW 1. The Complainant, by the aforementioned default in appearance at the hearing for this matter, failed to sustain the required burden of proving the charges set forth in the complaint by a preponderance of relevant, substantial and probative evidence and, consequently, the credible evidence of record does not support any findings that the Respondent has violated the charged provisions of A.R.S. §32-1154(A). RECOMMENDED ORDER ON REHEARING In view of the foregoing, and in light of the lack of prosecution by the Complainant, it is recommended that Citation No. T01-0257, together with the complaint upon which it is based, be dismissed. Done this day, September 25, 2001.
