The reason why I. missed the October 23, 1992 G.A.A.D.D. S . meeting was because I had to make a mandatory court appearance with my attorney, Public Defender Roger Fox on that very same day. My hearing with Roger Fox was set for 8 : 30 A.M. and I did not get out of court until close to 11 : 00 A.M. My G.A.A.D.D.

He has agreed to write a letter confirming that was required to appear in court with him on the morning of October 23, 1992 . I will forward this letter to you as soon as I receive it. Attending a mandatory criminal -court hearing with my public defender should constitute good cause for missing one G.A.A.D.D. S . meeting.

There was, therefore, no dispute of fact between the parties. The claimant testified that on the date in question, October 23, 1992 , he was due in court and that this could be verified by his public defender, Roger Fox. The claimant testified that this was a mandatory court appearance and the record was held open until 5 p.m. on December 16, 1992, for the claimant to obtain and submit verification that he was required .to be in court on the date in question, October 23 , 1992 . No verification was received. The claimant did telephone the hearing office on December 14, 1992 , and left a message on voice mail asking if his lawyer (public defender) had verified his excuse. No number was given for a return call. In the absence of any verifying report, and in consideration that not only has the time given expired but two additional days elapsed with no verifying report, the claim must be denied. ORDER: fiY Cl Denied: ❑ Claim Dismissed: Aid shall be discontinued and the Period of Ineligibility imposed. ❑ Aid shall be discontinued. The Period of Ineligibility shall be expunged from the record.
