submit a statement showing good cause for his noncompliance with the Local Rules or pay sanctions to the Clerk of the Court within ten days of the court's Order. Mr. Brook continues to flout the

court's February 2, 2010 Order to this day.1 IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Michael J.M. Brook shall, within ten days of this Order pay sanctions of $200.00 to the Clerk of the Court. If Mr. Brook fails to pay sanctions within

ten days of this Order the court will consider dismissal of this action and/or adjudicating Mr. Brook in contempt. DATED:

1 As the court noted in its November 6, 2009 Order, this is not the first time Mr. Brook has disregarded the Local Rules. In Raya v. Wachovia Mortgage et al., No. 2:09-1325 (E.D. Cal.) and in Bledea v. Wash. Mut. Home Loans et al., No. 2:09-1490 (E.D. Cal.), Mr. Brook similarly failed to timely file any papers in response to a motion to dismiss in violation of Local Rule 230(c).
