Call the clerk to be certain. It likely means "notice to party of contemplated dismissal" (meaning the case was getting ready to be tossed for failure to prosecute within a specified time frame) and the "fd" may be a clerk's initial or abbreviation for "forwarded" but rather than guessing you can get a copy of the actual document from the clerk's office.
