ORDER TO VACATE SETTLEMENT
CONFERENCE

v.

Case No. 1:15-cv-00937 AWI-EPG (PC)

GAMEZ, et al.,

15

Defendants.

Thomas Goff (“Plaintiff”) is a former state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma

19

pauperis in this civil rights action. Plaintiff did not appear for a telephonic pre-settlement

20

conference that I held on October 21. Following plaintiff’s non-appearance, Judge Grosjean

21

ordered plaintiff to show cause why this case should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute.

22

ECF No. 86. After this order—though not necessarily in response to it—plaintiff submitted to

23

chambers (but did not file) certain medical records, without any accompanying explanation. Mr.

24

Goff has neither responded effectively to Judge Grosjean’s order nor confirmed that he will be

25

able to attend the settlement conference scheduled for tomorrow. Accordingly, I am canceling

26

the settlement conference previously slated for tomorrow, November 8, 2019.
