The public dismissal decision describes the claimed condition as seizures or an ill-defined movement disorder but does not provide a detailed medical chronology.\n\nRespondent argued that the record did not establish that B.W. had a seizure disorder, did not show six-month residual effects, and did not satisfy any Althen causation requirement. After changes in counsel and time to evaluate the record, petitioner moved to dismiss the case, stating that the available evidence and science would not support entitlement.\n\nOn September 15, 2025, Special Master Thomas L. Moran dismissed the petition with prejudice for insufficient proof. No compensation was awarded. B.W. was represented by Nathan Marchese at dismissal.","is_minor_inferred":0,"is_pediatric_broad":1,"special_master":"Christian J.
