PRESENT: THE HONORABLE FERNANDO M. OLGUIN, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
CRIMINAL MINUTES - GENERAL
Proceedings: (In Chambers) Order to Show Cause Re: Sanctions or Dismissal
Pursuant to the Court's Order of September 28, 2023, the parties were required to complete a settlement conference before a private mediator no later than March 19, 2024. (See Dkt. 32, Court's Order of September 28, 2023, at 17). If the case settled, the parties were required to file a Notice of Settlement no later than 24 hours after settlement. (See id.). Otherwise, the parties were required to file a Status Report Re: Settlement no later than 48 hours after the settlement conference was complete. (See id.).
Although the parties stipulated to continue some deadlines, (see Dkt. 39, Court's Order of March 11, 2024), the settlement conference deadline was not one of them. (See id.).
As of the filing date of this Order, neither a Notice of Settlement nor a Status Report Re: Settlement has been filed. (See, generally, Dkt.). Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED THAT, no later than March 28, 2024, the parties shall show cause in writing why sanctions should not be imposed for failure to comply with the Court's Order of September 28, 2023. Failure to submit a response to this Order by the deadline set forth above may result in the imposition of sanctions and/or dismissal of this action for lack of prosecution. See Fed.R.Civ.P. 41(b); Link v. Wabash R.R. Co., 370 U.S. 626, 629-30, 82 S.Ct. 1386, 1388 (1962); Pagtalunan v. Galaza, 291 F.3d 639, 642 (9th Cir. 2002), cert. denied, 538 U.S. 909 (2003).
