On June 12, 2016, plaintiff Scott Johnson and defendant Karl Vuong, who is

18
19

proceeding pro se, submitted a joint notice of settlement. ECF No. 40. Accordingly, the court

20

ordered the parties to file dispositional documents or a joint status report as to why the case

21

should not be dismissed no later than August 12, 2016. ECF No. 43. That deadline passed, and

22

the parties did not comply with the court’s order. Instead, on August 26, 2016, Johnson and

23

Vuong filed a stipulation allowing plaintiff to file a first amended complaint adding additional

24

defendants. ECF No. 45. The stipulation makes no mention of the settlement, and provides no

25

explanation as to why the case should not be dismissed.
