ORDERS:
ORDER OF DISMISSAL
This
matter is before me on the appeal of Jasmine Brown (Appellant) filed on November
16, 2006. On February 7, 2007, the Department of Health and Human Services
filed the Record on Appeal. The Brief of Appellant was due fifteen (15) days
after the Record was filed. As of the date of this Order of Dismissal, the
Appellant’s Brief has not been received.
Pursuant
to ALC Rule 38, an Administrative Law Judge may dismiss an appeal for failure
to comply with the rules of procedure for appeals or for failure to comply with
any time limits set forth in an appeal. This delay is well beyond the time
period set forth in the Rules of Procedure for the Administrative Law Court.
As the Appellant has been afforded ample time to file her Brief, was notified
via letter dated February 27, 2007 that the Appellant’s Brief was late, and has
not notified the ALC of any extenuating circumstances regarding failure to file
the Appellant’s Brief, I conclude that this matter should be dismissed sua sponte.
IT
IS THEREFORE ORDERED that this appeal is dismissed.
AND
IT IS SO ORDERED.
