A lawsuit accusing Widener University School of Law of inflating job statistics is facing dismissal nearly seven years after it was filed.

U.S. Magistrate Judge Cathy Waldor recommended in a report made public Friday that the case be dismissed with prejudice for failure to prosecute. The recommendation comes after the sole remaining plaintiff, Gregory Emond, who is pro se, did not appear for an Aug. 27 hearing on an order to show cause on why the case should not be dismissed. Waldor’s recommendation is subject to approval by U.S. District Judge Susan Wigenton in 14 days after any objectors are allowed to be heard.
