ORDER

On December 11, 2012, the court ordered defendant, within 30 days, to respond to

17
18

plaintiff’s October 19, 2012 pleading, in which plaintiff alleged that his file for this case had

19

been removed from his cell. See ECF Nos. 21, 23. On January 2, 2013, the court sua sponte

20

granted defendant an additional 30 days to file its response to the court’s December 11, 2012

21

order to show cause. ECF No. 25.
The deadline by which defendant was to respond to the order to show cause has

22
23

now expired, and a review of the court’s docket reflects that defendant has not filed any response

24

or moved for an extension of time to do so.
