1Opinion of the Court
Vacated, reversed, and remanded for proceedings consistent with this published opinion. Judge GREGORY wrote the opinion, in which Chief Judge TRAXLER and Senior Judge ANDERSON joined.
GREGORY, Circuit Judge:
Stella Andrews appeals the district court’s dismissal of her action in light of her failure to pay attorneys’ fees from a prior action under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(d). While we conclude that Rule 41(d) may permit the award of attorneys’ fees under certain circumstances, those circumstances are not present here. We thus vacate, reverse, and remand.
