In the Matter of:

CHARLES D. CABLE,
    Complainant

    v.

FLUOR FEDERAL SERVICES, and
FLUOR HANFORD, INC.,
    Respondents

RECOMMENDED ORDER OF DISMISSAL

   This case was referred to the Office of Administrative Law Judges for formal hearing at the request of the Complainant, Charles D. Cable. A conference by telephonic communications was held with the parties on November 21, 2000, during which the Complainant stated that he is considering dismissing the instant administrative complaint and joining a case pending in state court in Benton County, Washington, which includes eleven plaintiffs and has a trial scheduled in May. The parties requested that further action in this case be stayed pending the Complainant's acceptance in the civil case. On February 28, 2001, Dana L. Gold, attorney for the Complainant, wrote:

I am counsel for Charles Cable, the Complainant in the above-referenced case. I am writing on his behalf to advise that he has elected to, and hereby withdraws, his administrative complaint from this forum. He will be seeking a remedy in state court for having been wrongfully discharged by Fluor Federal Services, Inc.

   Upon consideration of the request of the Complainant to withdraw his complaint, it is hereby,

   ORDERED that the request is GRANTED and the complaint of Charles D. Cable is DISMISSED.

       ROBERT L. HILLYARD
       Administrative Law Judge
