Repeated withdrawal and refiling of charges alleging substantially identical conduct may result in refusal to issue a complaint.

If, during hearing, the respondent objects to withdrawal, the hearing officer may refuse to allow it. Service and proof of service of the withdrawal pursuant to Section 32140 are required.
