A court may dismiss a dissolution action for failure to prosecute. Some jurisdictions have self-executing statutes that allow the clerk of court to dismiss an action for failure to prosecute. Others statutorily deem a case to be abandoned when the parties fail to take any action for a specified length of time. In other jurisdictions, a notice of dismissal is a predicate for administrative dismissal of inactive actions for lack of prosecution.

Basically what this means is that neither party took any actions to help move the case along and the did not try to stop the court from dismissing it.
