Eunkyong Choi, Special Trial Judge.
This case was calendared for trial at the March 16, 2023, Peoria, Illinois trial session of the Court. On February 14, 2023, respondent filed with the Court a Motion to Dismiss for Failure to Properly Prosecute. By Order to Show Cause served February 15, 2023, the Court directed petitioner to file an objection, if any, to respondent's Motion on or before March 10, 2023. Petitioner did not file any response to the Order to Show Cause. This case was then called from the Trial Session of the Court at Peoria, Illinois on March 16, 2023. Both Petitioner and counsel for respondent appeared and were heard at which time the parties informed the Court that a basis for settlement had been reached and respondent was conceding the case in full.
Upon due consideration, and for cause more fully appearing in the transcript of the proceedings, it is hereby
ORDERED that respondent's Motion to Dismiss for Failure to Properly Prosecute, filed February 14, 2023, is denied as moot. It is further
