1. On August 28, 2001, Xact Telesolutions, Inc.
(``Xact'') filed with this Commission a formal
complaint against Global Crossing, Ltd. (``Global
Crossing'') pursuant to section 208 of the
Communications Act of 1934, as amended (the ``Act''),
47 U.S.C. § 208. The complaint alleged, inter alia,
that Global Crossing imposed unauthorized and hidden
charges on Xact, and illegally terminated Xact's
subscribers' 800 numbers without notice in violation of
sections 201(a), 201(b), and 253(e) of the Act and
sections 63.71(a) and 64.2401(b) of the Commission's
rules. See 47 U.S.C. §§ 201(a), 201(b), 253(e); 47
C.F.R. §§ 63.71(a), 64.2401(b).
2. On December 21, 2001, the parties filed a Joint
Motion to Dismiss in which they stated that they had
reached a mutually acceptable settlement of all issues
raised in this proceeding. Their Joint Motion,
therefore, petitions the Commission to dismiss the
complaint with prejudice.
3. We are satisfied that dismissing the complaint
with prejudice will service the public interest by
promoting the private resolution of disputes and by
eliminating the need for further litigation and the
expenditure of further time and resources of the
parties and of this Commission.
4. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED, pursuant to sections
1, 4(i), 4(j), and 208 of the Communications Act of
1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. §§ 151, 154(i), 154(j), and
208, and authority delegated by sections 0.111 and
0.311 of the Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R. §§ 0.111,
0.311, that the Joint Motion to Dismiss IS GRANTED.
5. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, pursuant to sections 1,
4(i), 4(j), and 208 of the Communications Act of 1934,
as amended, 47 U.S.C. §§ 151, 154(i), 154(j), and 208,
and authority delegated by sections 0.111 and 0.311 of
the Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R. §§ 0.111, 0.311, that
the above-captioned complaint IS DISMISSED WITH
PREJUDICE and that the proceeding IS TERMINATED.
