Oe _N FINAL ORDER THIS CAUSE concerns a Petition for Administrative Hearing ("Petition") that the Petitioner filed with AHCA on July 16, 2007.

On June 26, 2008, the presiding officer entered an Order granting the Respondent's Motion to Dismiss or to Close DOAH File. The Order incorporated AHCA's Motion by reference as though fully set forth in the Order, and such Motion recited the several bases and fact allegations upon which dismissal of the Petition is appropriate — particularly the Petitioners’ failure to file any responsive pleading(s) to the numerous dispositive motions filed in this case to date; and failure or refusal to comply with any of the several Orders entered by the presiding officer, including the Order entered June 2, 2008 granting AHCA's Second Motion for Order to Show Cause.
