Shea Gillstrap v. HHS - HPV, other (2023)

Because no decision on the merits had been issued within the statutory timeframe, the petitioner was notified of her option to withdraw the petition or have it remain before the special master. On July 7, 2023, the petitioner elected to withdraw the petition.

The Chief Special Master granted this request, concluding the proceedings. No judgment on the merits was entered.
