This matter is before the Administrative Law Court pursuant to an Agency Transmittal

South Carolina Department of Revenue’s (Department) administrative denial of its application
for an off-premises beer and wine permit for its location at 3614 Hwy. 11, Chesnee, South

protestant in this matter, notified the Court that he wished to withdraw his protest. Therefore,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that this case is dismissed with prejudice.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Department resume processing the Petitioner’s
application for an off-premise beer and wine permit.
AND IT IS SO ORDERED.
