Efimoff v. Marion County Assessor, Tc-Md 110211n (or.tax 12-5-2011)

DECISION OF DISMISSALThis matter is before the court on its own motion to dismiss this case for lack of prosecution. A trial was scheduled at 9:00 a.m. on December 5, 2011, to consider Plaintiffs' appeal. That date was agreed upon by the parties during the case management conference on August 31, 2011. On September 8, 2011, the court sent notice of the scheduled trial to Plaintiffs at PO Box 232, Mt. Angel, OR 97362, which is the address Plaintiffs provided to the court in a letter dated June 10, 2011. The September 8, 2011, notice was not returned as undeliverable. The notice advised that if Plaintiffs did not appear, the court might dismiss the appeal.

Plaintiffs failed to appear for trial at 9:00 a.m. on December 5, 2011. As of 9:30 a.m. on December 5, 2011, the court has received no further communication from Plaintiffs. Under such circumstances, the appeal must be dismissed for lack of prosecution. Now, therefore,

IT IS THE DECISION OF THIS COURT that the Complaint is dismissed.
