ORDERS:
ORDER OF DISMISSAL
A hearing on the “need and reasonableness” of the above proposed regulation was
scheduled for 2:00 p.m. on Thursday, April 8, 2004, at the Administrative Law Judge Division,
Edgar A. Brown Building, 1205 Pendleton Street, Columbia, South Carolina.
ALJD Rule 45 requires the agency to provide a statement, at least ten (10) days before
the scheduled hearing date, confirming the need for a hearing pursuant to S.C. Code Ann. § 1-23-110 (Supp. 2003) on the basis that a request for a hearing was made by twenty-five (25)
persons, a governmental subdivision or agency, or an association having not less than twenty-five (25) members.
By letter dated March 30, 2004, Melanie A. Joseph, Legislative Liaison for the
Department of Insurance, informed the Administrative Law Judge Division that no comments
or requests for a hearing were submitted to the Department. Thus, a hearing is unnecessary
in this matter.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the hearing scheduled for 2:00 p.m. on April
8, 2004 is cancelled.
AND IT IS SO ORDERED.
