DECISION OF DISMISSAL
Plaintiff filed its Complaint on November 9, 2010. A case management conference was held on March 9, 2010. The parties requested that the case be stayed pending certain legislation regarding multiple unit housing.
On March 10, 2010, John S. Thomas (Thomas), Deputy County Attorney, notified the court that the pending legislation had been signed by the governor and would take effect on May 27, 2010. In that letter, Thomas "suggeste[ed] * * * cases be pended until roll corrections and appropriate refunds have been made, all of which should be completed by mid-June 2010. At that time, [Defendants] expect that the appellants will elect to withdraw their appeals." (Def. County's Ltr at 2, Mar 10, 2010.) Thomas acknowledged he had not conferred with the parties but that he "presume[d] if any party ha[d] a different view, that view [would] be made known to the court." (Id.) Jane Olberding, representative for Plaintiff, received a copy of that letter.
On July 23, 2010, the court issued a Journal Entry, stating that the court had had no further communication from Plaintiff or its representative. The court stated that if Plaintiff did not respond by August 6, 2010, the appeal would be dismissed for lack of prosecution. *Page 2
