A Kane County judge dismissed on Thursday morning a stalking/no contact order filed against DeKalb District 428 Superintendent Doug Moeller.

An emergency stalking ordered filed by DeKalb High School principal Michele Albano on Sept. 19 will expire on its own terms.

According to court records, Albano failed to appear in court Thursday morning. Superintendent Moeller, along with his lawyers and several witnesses did appear in court before the dismissal.

Earlier this week, the school board hired interim Superintendent Brad Hawk to assume Moeller's responsibilities at a rate of $925/day through June 30, 2017.
