By Order filed February 3, 2017, counsel’s motion to withdraw as attorney

20

was granted and mailed to plaintiff pro se at his last known address of record

21

provided by counsel. (ECF No. 25). Plaintiff was advised that he must file the

22

Memorandum in Support of Plaintiff’s Complaint by March 3, 2017 or his failure

23

will be deemed to be consent to a dismissal. (Id.) The docket sheet shows that, as

24

late as the date of this Order, plaintiff has not filed a Memorandum in Support of

25

Plaintiff’s Complaint nor requested an extension of time to do so. Plaintiff has

26

failed to comply with the Court’s Order.

27

Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that plaintiff shall show cause in writing no

28

later than April 3, 2017 why this action should not be dismissed. If plaintiff fails

1

to file a written objection to dismissal of this action within the time specified, it

2

will be deemed to be consent to a dismissal as against Defendant. The filing of

3

a Plaintiff’s Memorandum in Support of Complaint by April 3, 2017, shall

4

discharge the order to show cause.
