17

Defendants.

On December 2, 2016, defendants filed a motion to compel plaintiff’s deposition and

19
20

noticed the motion for hearing before the undersigned on December 23, 2016, in compliance with

21

Local Rule 302(c)(1). Defendants’ motion alleges that plaintiff has repeatedly failed to appear for

22

noticed depositions and seeks an order compelling plaintiff to appear for a deposition and to pay

23

$4,674.05 in sanctions. (ECF No. 28 at 1.) Pursuant to Local Rule 251(e), plaintiff’s counsel was

24

to file a response to defendants’ motion on or before December 16, 2016. Plaintiff’s counsel,

25

however, has failed to file a timely response to defendants’ motion.
