Here's a definition for off calendar from google site......off calendar adj. refers to an order of the court to take a lawsuit, petition or motion off the list of pending cases or motions which are scheduled to be heard. A case or motion will be ordered off calendar if the lawyers agree (stipulate) to drop it, if the moving party's lawyer fails to appear, if a suit is settled pending final documentation, or any number of procedural reasons for the judge to determine the case should not proceed at that time. A suit or motion can be put back "on calendar" by stipulation of the lawyers or upon motion of either party. (See: calendar)

So, Tall, by reading this, the case could be settled, or the lawyers dropped it, or other procedural reasons have delayed things. Take your pick! My feeling is that the case ends inour favor. Also, Brian stated we can move forward without the escrow money. We'll see.

It simply means someone has filed a motion for an to abate of dismiss the case which is off calendar.

The key in in the term is "motion for order to abate of dismiss.."

In english - abate: to put an end to something. The term in legalese is someone the wants a motion to stop the dismissal of the case which is off calendar.

In other words, someone is bitching it was placed off calendar.

Question is who filed the motion. Plaintiff or defendant?
