Almost four months have passed since defendants answered

at 1 (general order mandating that the parties confer, in this case, no
later than September 8, 2015, and submit their report by September 22).
Within 14 days of the date this Order is served, therefore, plaintiff shall
show cause why this case should not be dismissed on abandonment

grounds, as well as for failure to obey a court order. See Fed. R. Civ. P.
41(b); S.D. Ga. L.R. 41.1(c).
