ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE RE DISMISSAL FOR LACK OF
PROSECUTION AS TO FOUR DEFENDANTS

The action herein was filed on September 10, 2014. On September 17, 2014, plaintiffs filed
proofs of service regarding service of the complaint and summons on multiple defendants, including
Velocity VIII Limited Partnership, Velocity Regional Center, LLC, REO Group Properties, LLC, and
Yunyan Guan, also known as Christine Guan (“Defendants in Issue”). The deadlines for the Defendants
in Issue to file responsive pleadings has expired. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(e), 4(h)(1), 12(a)(1); Cal. Civ.
Proc. Code §§ 415.10, 415.20(a), 415.20(b), 416.40, 416.90; Cal. Corp. Code § 1770.16(a). Since the
expiration of such deadlines, based upon a review of the docket, the Court is unaware of any action
having been undertaken in this matter relative to the Defendants in Issue. No Defendant in Issue has
filed an answer. Nor has any Defendant in Issue requested an extension of time to file a responsive
pleading. No request for the entry of default has been filed.
The Court, on its own motion, hereby ORDERS plaintiffs to show cause in writing no later than
November 6, 2014, why this action should not be dismissed for lack of prosecution as against the
Defendants in Issue.
It is plaintiffs’ responsibility to respond promptly to all orders and to prosecute the action
diligently. All stipulations affecting the progress of the case must be approved by the Court, except as
otherwise provided in the Local Rules. L.R. 7-1, 8-3.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
