Shalon Watts and Anthony Watts, Plaintiffs, v. Anchored Tiny Homes, Incorporated, Defendant.


ORDER

Shalon and Anthony Watts filed their complaint in this action in March 2022. ECF No. 1. The next day, a summons was issued to the only defendant, Anchored Tiny Homes, Inc., ECF No. 2, and the court set a status (pretrial scheduling) conference for July 14 2022. ECF No. 3. The defendant did not file any answer or motions, however, so the court vacated and reset the scheduling conference. ECF No. 4. The plaintiffs then confirmed in a written status report that they had served a copy of the complaint on the defendants and that the parties were negotiating a settlement agreement. ECF No. 6. The defendant did not appear, however, and the court reset the scheduling conference twice more. ECF No. 7, 8. A status conference is currently set for November 17, 2022, but the defendant has yet to appear.

The plaintiffs are ordered to show cause within seven days why this action should not be dismissed for lack of prosecution under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b). See Hernandez v. City of El Monte, 138 F.3d 393, 399 (9th Cir. 1998) (citing Henderson v. Duncan, 779 F.2d 1421 (9th Cir. 1986)). The status (pretrial scheduling) conference is vacated and reset for December 15, 2022 at 2:30 p.m. before the undersigned.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
