    At any time prior to service of notification to the complainant 
pursuant to Sec.  12.15(a) of the Director of the Office of Proceedings' 
determination to forward the complaint to a registrant, complainant may 
file a written notice of withdrawal of the complaint which shall

complainant has previously filed a notice of withdrawal of a complaint 
based upon the same set of facts, the notice of withdrawal of complaint 
shall terminate the case with prejudice to complainant's rights to re-
file a complaint in reparations based on the same set of facts, but such 
termination shall be regarded by the Commission as without prejudice to 
complainant's right to seek redress in such alternative forums as may be 
available for adjudication of his claims.
