v.

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

CAROLYN W. COLVIN, Acting
Commissioner of Social Security,
Defendant.

17

On October 8, 2015, the court approved the parties’ second stipulation to extend the date

18
19

for defendant to file her cross-motion for summary judgment and ordered defendant to file her

20

motion by October 26, 2016. ECF No. 20. The deadline has passed and defendant has failed to

21

file her cross-motion for summary judgment. Local Rule 110 provides that failure to comply with

22

court orders “may be grounds for imposition by the Court of any and all sanctions authorized by

23

statute or Rule or within the inherent power of the Court.”

24

Accordingly, good cause appearing, it hereby ORDERED that:

25

1.

Defendant shall show cause, in writing, within fourteen days of the date of this

26

order, why sanctions should not be imposed for failure to timely file a cross-

27

motion for summary judgment.

the date of this order.
3. Failure to file a cross-motion for summary judgment will be deemed a statement of

4

non-opposition to plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment and may result in granting plaintiff’s

5

motion and/or the imposition of sanctions.
