It depends upon the jurisdiction in which the case is pending, and the type of case involved. Frequently, in a civil suit that is pending in a court of general jurisdiction, there must be a period of inactivity for a year; however, the precise time is governed by the rules of procedure for that court. Additionally, the time may differ if the case is pending in a "specialty" court, such as Small Claims. Different rules of procedure often apply, including a shortened period of inactivity before the case is subject to dismissal for lack of prosecution.
