ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE RE: FAILURE TO PROSECUTE
Plaintiff Nicholas Tirabassi (“Plaintiff”) initiated this action against Defendants
Chase Home Finance, LLC; JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.; U.S. Bank National
Association; Select Portfolio Servicing, Inc.; and Deutsche Bank National Trust
Company (collectively, “Defendants”) in November 2014. (Dkt. No. 1.) The Court set a
Rule 26(f) scheduling conference for June 15, 2015, at 1:30 p.m. (Dkt. No. 36.) In
preparation for the conference, Defendants’ attorneys attempted to meet and confer with
Plaintiff’s counsel to prepare a joint Rule 26(f) report. (Dkt. No. 37.) Although
Plaintiff’s counsel initially responded with dates of availability, he did not respond to
later attempts to schedule a specific time to confer. Defendants’ respective counsels
agreed to meet the morning of June 8, 2015 and invited Plaintiff’s counsel to attend.
Plaintiff’s counsel did not respond to the invitation or participate in the June 8, 2015
conference. Plaintiff’s counsel also failed to appear before the Court on June 15, 2015.
Accordingly, Plaintiff is ORDERED to show cause as to why this case should not
be dismissed for failure to prosecute. See Link v. Wabash R.R. Co., 370 U.S. 626, 629–
33 (1962) (finding district court did not abuse discretion in dismissing the plaintiff’s
complaint where counsel failed to appear at a pretrial conference). Plaintiff’s response to
this Order must be filed no later than Monday, June 22, 2015, at 12:00 p.m.
:

IT IS SO ORDERED.
