DECISION OF DISMISSAL
ALLISON R. BOOMER MAGISTRATE PRO TEMPORE.
This matter is before the court on its own motion to dismiss this case for lack of prosecution.
Plaintiffs filed a Complaint on February 9, 2012, challenging the real market value of property described as Account R529994. On March 15, 2012, Plaintiff Willa Fay Hagg's representative, Jan Anderson, called the court and informed a member of the court operations team that the parties had settled and they no longer wished to continue their appeal. The court operations team member requested that the parties put their statement in writing. A member of the court operations team called the parties and requested a written statement on April 17, 2012, and April 18, 2012. The court received no further communication from Plaintiffs.
An Order was issued on May 11, 2012, requiring that Plaintiffs file a signed stipulation, a written request to withdraw their appeal, or a written request for a case management conference within 14 days. The Order stated that Plaintiffs' failure to comply with the Order would result in a dismissal of their appeal. Plaintiffs' deadline has passed and the court has not received further communication from Plaintiffs. Now, therefore, IT IS THE DECISION OF THIS COURT that the Complaint is dismissed.
