Upon motion of any party, upon request of the protesting party, or as a sanction permitted the Office of Judges by these rules, any protest pending before the Office of Judges can be dismissed from litigation.
The Office of Judges does not have statutory authority to dismiss a claim. The Office of Judges' jurisdiction is limited solely to pending protests. Any motion, or request, to dismiss a claim must be directed to the claims administrator.
