The respondent contended that there was minimal, scientifically unreliable evidence linking the vaccination to CIDP, that the timeframe between vaccination and symptom onset was not medically acceptable, and that the petitioner failed to establish a theory for how the MMR vaccine could cause CIDP. Petitioner moved for a decision on the record after failing to file an expert report by the court-ordered deadline. Special Master Brian H. Corcoran found insufficient evidence in the record to support the claim that E.M.R. suffered a Table Injury or that her alleged injuries were vaccine-caused, and that the record did not contain a medical expert's opinion or other persuasive evidence supporting the conclusion that E.M.R.'s alleged injuries were vaccine-caused, nor did it support the conclusion that the onset of CIDP symptoms occurred in a medically acceptable timeframe after the MMR vaccine. The case was dismissed for insufficient proof on February 10, 2015.

The respondent, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, argued that there was minimal, scientifically unreliable evidence linking the vaccination to CIDP, that the timeframe between vaccination and symptom onset was not medically acceptable, and that the petitioner failed to establish a theory for how the MMR vaccine could cause CIDP.
