Defendant.

Plaintiff filed a complaint on July 26, 2013, alleging violations of the Americans

18

With Disabilities Act, the California Disabled Persons and Unruh Acts. The case was set for a

19

pretrial scheduling conference on December 12, 2013, but the date was reset because the parties

21

defendant has not answered. There is no indication on the docket, however, that defendant has

22

been served.

23

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that:

1. Plaintiff show cause within fourteen days of the date of this order why this case

25

should not be dismissed, either because of plaintiff’s failure to serve the summons and complaint

26

within the time limits of Rule 4(m) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure or his failure to

27

prosecute. FED. R. CIV. P. 41(b).
