THE UNITED STATES Defendant. ______________________________________________________________________________ PLAINTIFFS' RESPONSE TO DEFENDANT'S MOTION TO DISMISS FOR FAILURE TO PROSECUTE Plaintiffs Apache Apartments of Owatonna, et al., hereby respond to "Defendant's Motion to Dismiss the Claims of New Goldendale Homes Limited Partnership and New Howard Lake Limited Partnership for Failure to Prosecute and Failure to Comply with an Order of this Court," filed on March 30, 2006. On April 17, 2006 (the date of this filing), plaintiffs and defendant filed a "Joint Stipulation Regarding Voluntary Dismissal of Plaintiffs New Goldendale Homes, L.P. and New Howard Lake, L.P.," pursuant to which the parties stipulated to the dismissal of all claims asserted in this action by the two plaintiffs at issue. As a result, defendant's motion has been rendered moot by the parties' stipulation.
