ORDERS:
ORDER OF DISMISSAL
This matter is here pursuant to
S.C. Code Ann. § 61‑2‑260 (Supp. 2004) and S.C. Code Ann. §§ 1‑23‑310
et seq. (1986 & Supp. 2004) for a contested case hearing. Petitioner
applied for an on-premises beer and wine permit for an establishment known as
Cassidy’s Grocery, located at 9845 Hartsville Ruby Road, Patrick, 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 #3 at the Greenville County
Courthouse in Greenville, South Carolina on Thursday, June 16, 2005, at 9:30
a.m. However, on June 15, 2005, the Court was notified by the sole Protestant
in this matter, Chesterfield County Sheriff’s Office, that they are withdrawing
their protest.
Accordingly, with no protest
existing, DOR shall continue to process Petitioner, Mitchell Smith’s
application for an on-premises beer and wine permit for the above named
establishment known as Cassidy’s Grocery, located at 9845 Hartsville Ruby Road,
Patrick, South Carolina.
AND IT IS SO ORDERED.
