     1.   This matter comes before the Commission on the Joint Motion of AT&T Corp.,
and Illinois Bell Telephone Company, Indiana Bell Telephone Company, Michigan Bell
Telephone Company, The Ohio Bell Telephone Company Wisconsin Bell, Inc. (collectively
"Ameritech") to Dismiss With Prejudice ("Joint Motion").

     2.   Although the above-captioned proceedings are consolidated and involve
numerous carriers, the Joint Motion pertains exclusively to the dismissal of the complaints
between AT&T Corp. and Ameritech.  The above-captioned formal complaint and supplemental
complaint for damages address Ameritech's application of carrier common line charges for
certain optional calling services.   

     3.   The Common Carrier Bureau has reviewed the Joint Motion and has found good
cause to grant the Joint Motion because it will serve the public interest by promoting the private
resolution of disputes and conserving the Commission's scarce resources.

     4.   Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED, pursuant to sections 4(i) and 4(j) of the
Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C.  154(i), 154(j), and authority delegated
in sections 0.91 and 0.291 of the Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R.  0.91, 0.291, that the Joint
Motion to Dismiss is GRANTED, and the above-referenced proceedings are DISMISSED WITH
PREJUDICE, in accordance with the terms agreed to in the Joint Motion to Dismiss.
