LG CAPITAL FUNDING, LLC, Plaintiff, v. DOMARK INTERNATIONAL, INC., Defendant.
ORDER
P. KEVIN CASTEL UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
On September 3, 2021, the Court held an initial conference in this action in which plaintiff's counsel appeared, but defendant's counsel did not. The following minute entry memorialized the conference: “No appearance by defendant. Plaintiff may move for a clerks certificate of default and a default judgment. The next conference is scheduled for December 10, 2021 at 10:30 a.m. by telephone.”
Plaintiff has secured the Clerk's Certificate of Default but has not moved for a default judgment. Plaintiff's counsel neither appeared at the December 10 conference nor explained his absence.
There will be a conference on December 16, 2021 at 11:00 a.m. telephonically. (See Order of June 29, 2021 for call-info.) Failure of plaintiff to appear will result in dismissal of the action for failure to prosecute and/or violation of Rule 16.
SO ORDERED
