A party who has filed an appeal from a decision of an ALJ may request that the appeal be withdrawn. The request must explain the reasons for the withdrawal by making a written statement to the Board explaining the reasons for the withdrawal. The

Board may deny such a request if the withdrawal of the appeal jeopardizes the due process rights of any party. If the Board grants the request, a decision dismissing the appeal will be issued and the underlying decision will remain in effect. The decision will inform the party of the right to reinstate the appeal and the procedure for reinstating the appeal. A request to reinstate an appeal under this subsection must be made within ten days of the decision dismissing the appeal, must be in writing, and must show cause for the request. A request to reinstate made more than 30 days after the dismissal will be treated as a late appeal.
