The Board correctly concluded that Sandoval's claim was barred. We conclude that no substantial question regarding the outcome of this petition for review exists; therefore, summary affirmance is appropriate. Furthermore, if Sandoval files another document with this court and, upon review, it is determined that the arguments are frivolous, this court will consider the imposition of monetary sanctions. | {

Nevertheless, it does not appear that Shelton, as a matter of law, sanctions dismissal at the pleading stage for failure to allege a present ability to tender. Indeed, the procedural posture (decided at the summary judgment stage) and language appearing in that case suggest otherwise. In particular, the Shelton court, in upholding the district court's granting of summary judgment, relied on the particular circumstances and evidence presented and noted the trial judge had specifically determined that the plaintiffs were unable to tender the loan proceeds. | {

It is difficult, on summary judgment, to draw a conclusive inference from this history. On the one hand, USAID's termination of the Project may have been a hasty overreaction to a violation of a relatively minor provision; on the other hand, USAID's attempts to continue the Project with a change of personnel might simply mean that USAID decided that its first priority would be to salvage some of the work to reform the Russian economy, and then deal with its miscreant grantee later. | {

It is difficult, on summary judgment, to draw a conclusive inference from this history. On the one hand, USAID's termination of the Project may have been a hasty overreaction to a violation of a relatively minor provision; on the other hand, USAID's attempts to continue the Project with a change of personnel might simply mean that USAID decided that its first priority would be to salvage some of the work to reform the Russian economy, and then deal with its miscreant grantee later. | {

Plaintiffs request that the court reconsider the business relationships that existed between the various parties and find that in light of these business relationships, the constructive ordering doctrine "should be applied through the entire communications path of the traffic, not just isolated segments of the path."

Second, the defendant argues the trial court erred by admitting the blood test results because the law enforcement officer did not have probable cause to believe the defendant was under the influence of alcoholic beverages before requiring the defendant to submit to the blood draw as required by section 316.1933(l)(a). As the record reflects that the law enforcement officer did not require the defendant to submit to the blood test, but rather the law enforcement officer obtained the blood sample after the defendant voluntarily consented to the blood draw, we find that this argument lacks merit. | {
