A District of Columbia Superior Court judge has dismissed a malpractice lawsuit filed against Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson, finding that the plaintiff, a Maryland woman, failed to prosecute her case.

Michelle Etlin, who was representing herself, sued Fried Frank in October 2011, accusing firm attorneys of failing to adequately represent her in defending against a child support action—allegations the firm denied. Judge John Mott, in an order [PDF] yesterday, found that Etlin had not filed any documents, met deadlines, or appeared for a hearing over the past six months.
