By the Deputy Chief, Market Disputes Resolution Division, Enforcement Bureau:
1. On June 10, 2011, Sprint Communications Company L.P. (Sprint) filed with 
this Commission a formal complaint against Tekstar Communications, Inc. (Tekstar) under 
section 208 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (Act), 47 U.S.C. § 208.1  
2. On August 16, 2012, Sprint filed a Motion to Dismiss with Prejudice, stating 
that the parties “have settled their dispute in a mutually satisfactory manner.”2 Sprint therefore 
requests that the Complaint be dismissed with prejudice.3
3. We are satisfied that granting the Motion to Dismiss will serve the public 
interest by encouraging parties to work privately to narrow and resolve disputed issues, which 
may limit or eliminate the need for litigation and the further expenditure of resources by the 
parties and this Commission.

C.F.R. §§ 1.720-1.736, and the authority delegated in sections 0.111 and 0.311 of the
