   On January 23, 2020, the Agency filed Administrative Complaints against each of Respondent’s four Agency-licensed group homes. The license numbers for those group homes are 11-1106-GH, 11-1142-GH, 11-1178-GH, and 11-1258-GH. On February 20, 2020, Respondent timely filed a Request for Administrative Hearing for license number 11-1258-GH and the case was referred to the Division of Administrative Hearings (“DOAH”). After an evidentiary hearing and vacating Final Orders pertaining to the other three group homes, all four cases were referred to DOAH. On September 30, 2020, the Agency filed an Unopposed Motion to Relinquish Jurisdiction based on the parties’ resolution of the cases without the need

   for a hearing, which the administrative law judge granted on October 1, 2020.
