ORDER OF DISMISSAL
Petitioner Shelley Bynoe-Simpson appeals the Boston Retirement System’s determination to terminate disability retirement benefits for failure to comply with the requirements of Mass. Gen. Laws ch. 31, § 91A. On February 2, 2026, the Division of Administrative Law Appeals entered an order to show cause why petitioner’s appeal should not be dismissed owing to her failure to submit a prehearing memorandum by October 27, 2023, as previously ordered. Petitioner was given until March 2, 2026 to respond to the show-cause order. No response was received.
Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed for failure to prosecute. 801 CMR 1.01(7)(g)(3).
