WHITMAN KNAPP, District Judge.
In this action for damages, Showky Kaldawy (“Showky”) moves to be substituted for the deceased plaintiff, Samir Kaldawy (“Samir”). Defendants Federal Insurance Company, A-l Connecticut Moving & Storage, Inc., Aero Mayflower Transit Co., Inc., and Bruce J. Gold (“defendants”) cross-move for dismissal of the action on two grounds: 1) pursuant to Rule 41(b), for want of prosecution, and 2) pursuant to Rule 25(a)(1), for failure to timely move for substitution. For reasons that follow, we deny defendants’ motion to dismiss and grant Showky’s motion for substitution.
