In response, Appellant filed a motion to strike the motion to dismiss and filed a motion for default judgment based on the ADC’s failure to file a responsive pleading. The circuit court granted the ADC’s motion to dismiss and denied Appellant’s motions to strike and for default judgment. The Supreme Court affirmed the order dismissing the petition and denying Appellant’s motions, concluding that the circuit court did not err in its judgment.
