ORDER
This
matter is before the South Carolina Administrative Law Court (ALC or Court)
pursuant to the request for contested case hearing filed December 5, 2008.
A
hearing on the merits was scheduled to begin on Wednesday, January 28, 2009, at
2:00 p.m. at the Administrative Law Court. By telephone on January 27, 2009,
Michael L. McDonald, d/b/a M.L.M. Wine & Liquors, the sole protestant in
this case, notified the ALC of his desire to withdraw his protest in this
matter. At 2:10 p.m. on January 28, 2009, this Court noted on the record that
the Protestant failed to appear at the scheduled hearing.
Other
than the timely filed public protest, the South Carolina Department of Revenue
has determined that the Petitioner has met all other statutory requirements for
licensure.
IT
IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the South Carolina Department of Revenue continue
processing Petitioner’s application for a retail liquor license for its
location at 1385C Celebration Blvd., Florence, South Carolina.
AND IT IS SO ORDERED.
