ORDER
Leo Mullen appeals the circuit court's dismissal of his case for failure to prosecute. He contends that the circuit court erred in dismissing his petition because justice prefers a trial of the matter on the merits rather than dismissal. We affirm. Discerning no jurisprudential value in publishing an opinion, we issue this summary order. Rule 84.16(b). We have issued a memorandum to the parties explaining our ruling.
