While dismissals for failure to prosecute are generally on the merits, as required by Federal Rule of Civil
Procedure 41(b), this dismissal is without prejudice because the Court does not know whether the parties are
actively in arbitration. A dismissal without prejudice will have no effect on any ongoing arbitration.
