An order striking a motion or dismissing an adversary proceeding for want of prosecution may be entered if counsel or a party pro se fails to respond to a call of an adversary proceeding or pending motion, whether set by summons or ordered by the judge.

Committee Note: This rule is based on local General Rule 21, modified to omit 21A so as to retain complete judicial responsibility for evaluating whether proceedings and motions should be stricken or dismissed for lack of prosecution, rather than imposing designated time limits. The necessary discretionary authority is supplemented but not duplicated by Fed.R.Bankr.P. 7016. Dismissal of a motion for failure to prosecute is established by Rule 402 I.
