its own motion, orders plaintiff to show cause in writing on or before March 15, 2013, why this action
should not be dismissed for lack of prosecution as to defendant Toyota Motor Corporation. Pursuant to
Rule 78 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the Court finds that this matter is appropriate for
submission without oral argument. The Order to Show Cause will stand submitted upon the filing of
plaintiff’s response. Failure to respond to this Order may result in the imposition of sanctions, including
but not limited to dismissal of the complaint against Toyota Motor Corporation.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
