Case No.: 1:13-cv-00093 - JLT
ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE WHY SANCTIONS
SHOULD NOT BE IMPOSED FOR FAILURE TO
FILE THE STIPULATED REQUEST FOR
DISMISSAL

16
17

On January 12, 2015, the parties filed a joint notice that the matter has been settled in full.

18

(Doc. 46) Thereafter, the Court issued an order requiring the parties to file a stipulated dismissal by

19

February 13, 2015. (Doc. 47) However, the Court granted stipulations to extend this deadline on

20

February 17 and March 13, 2015. (Docs. 49, 51)

21

In the last order granting an extension of time to file the dismissal, the Court noted that the two

22

stipulations used nearly the exact same language without demonstrating what impediment existed to

23

completing the settlement and ordered, “The court will GRANT this last stipulation making the filing

24

of the dismissal to occur no later than April 10, 2015. No further extensions of time will be

25

granted.” (Doc. 51 at 2) Despite this, no stipulated request for dismissal has been filed. Therefore,

26

the Court ORDERS:

///

1.

No later than May 29, 2015, the parties SHALL show cause in writing why sanctions

2

should not be imposed for their failure to comply with the Court’s orders. Alternatively, the parties

3

may file the stipulated request for dismissal within this same time period.
