ORDERS:
ORDER OF DISMISSAL
This matter is here pursuant to S.C. Code Ann. § 61-2-260 (Supp. 2003) and S.C. Code Ann. §§
1-23-310 et seq. (1986 & Supp. 2003) for a contested case hearing. Petitioner applied for an on-premises beer and wine permit for an establishment located at 504 Eison Town Road, Jonesville,
South Carolina. In a Motion to be Excused, DOR advised that the applicant appears to have met all
statutory requirements, that no controversy exists between applicant and DOR, that DOR has no
evidence to support denying the application, and that DOR would have issued the permit but for the
protestant. Thus, only the protest presented the controversy.
In the instant case, notice of the hearing was provided to all parties as well as the protestant informing
all that a hearing would be held in Courtroom #1 at the Anderson County Courthouse in Anderson,
South Carolina on Tuesday, November 16, 2004, at 9:30 a.m. However, at that hearing, the
protestant did not appear. Thus, the protest is waived.
Accordingly, with no protest existing, DOR shall continue to process Petitioner’s application for an
on-premises beer and wine permit at 504 Eison Town Road, Jonesville, South Carolina.
AND IT IS SO ORDERED.
