I have reviewed the records of the Office and as co-custodian of such records have determined:

1. On December 22, 1999, the recommended decision in the above entitled matter was transmitted to the Department of Insurance by mail;

2. Pursuant to A.R.S. § 41 -1092.08, the Department of Insurance was required to accept, reject or modify the recommended decision, as evidenced by receipt of such action by the Office of Administrative Hearings, on or before January 26, 2000.

3. No action by Department of Insurance was received by the Office of Administrative Hearings as of January 26, 2000. Therefore, pursuant to A.R.S. § 41 -1092.08, the attached recommended decision is certified as the final administrative decision of the Department of Insurance. This means that the Department of Insurance may not modify or reject this recommended decision.

You have the right to request a rehearing from the Department of Insurance pursuant to A.R.S. § 41-1092.09(A). In addition, you have the right to appeal your action to the Superior Court, pursuant to A.R.S. § 41- 1092.08(H) although you may be required to seek a rehearing from the Department of Insurance before you appeal (see A.R.S. § 41-1092.09(B)). Your further rights will be lost if you do not act in a timely manner. You may wish to review these sections as quickly as possible after receipt of this notice. They can be located at your local library.

Done this day, February 1, 2000.
