ORDERS:
ORDER OF DISMISSAL
This
matter is currently pending before the South Carolina Administrative Law
Court. The Petitioner Rob’s Paradise, LLC (“Petitioner”) requested a contested
case hearing following the Department of Revenue’s (“Department”) denial of the
Petitioner’s request for an on premises beer and wine permit and restaurant
liquor by the drink license based on the receipt of valid public protest by Vic
Patel (“Protestant”). According to Department, Petitioner met the statutory
requirements for the permit and but for the protest, the permit would have been
granted. The Court received a letter by Protestant on June 6, 2008 in which he
withdrew his protest on the basis that he was moving out of the vicinity of
Petitioner’s location. Because the Department would have granted the permit
but for the protest and the protest has been withdrawn, the issues before the
Court are now moot. Therefore, it is hereby:
ORDERED that this matter is remanded to the Department of Revenue to continue to
process the Petitioner’s application and issue an on premises beer and wine
permit and restaurant liquor by the drink license to the Petitioner for the
location at 4213-E Savannah Hwy, Ravenel, South Carolina.
AND
IT IS SO ORDERED.
