AI-assisted case summary:
Diane K Jenkins filed a petition for vaccine injury compensation on June 21, 2016. The case progressed without a specific medical condition or vaccine being detailed in this particular filing. On July 27, 2016, the petitioner filed a notice to withdraw the petition pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 300aa-21(b). The Special Master issued an order concluding the proceedings on the merits, noting that judgment would not enter and any right to file a civil action was preserved. The case was therefore dismissed based on the withdrawal.

ORDER CONCLUDING PROCEEDINGS PURSUANT TO § 300aa-21(b)
WITHDRAWAL1
Gowen, Special Master:
Petitioner has filed a notice to withdraw this petition pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 300aa-21(b).
A notice of withdrawal under 42 U.S.C. § 300aa-21(b) concludes the proceedings on the merits;
however, judgment will not enter. See Hamilton v. Sec’y of HHS, No. 02-838V, 2003 WL
23218074 (Fed. Cl. Spec. Mstr. Nov. 26, 2003). Additionally, any right petitioner may have to file
a civil action is preserved. This Order hereby notifies the Clerk of the Court that proceedings on
the merits of this petition are now concluded and that judgment shall not enter.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
