Defendant.

On August 15, 2018, the court issued an order granting the parties’ motion to

approve the minor plaintiffs’ settlement in this case. Order, ECF No. 55. That order also directed

20

plaintiffs’ counsel, Mr. Jambeck, to file proof of the payments specified in the order within 60

21

days, along with a stipulated dismissal under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a)(1)(A)(ii). On

22

July 9, 2019, nearly a year later, Mr. Jambeck filed proof of deposits into blocked accounts for

23

I.M. ($14,679.111), A.V. ($9,789.66), and T.V. ($9,789.66). Mr. Jambeck has yet to file proof of

The settlement approval order listed a settlement amount for “I.S.” as $14,684.50. Order at 7.
The memorandum in support of the motion for approval of the settlement agreement only
references “I.M.” who is a plaintiff in this case. ECF No. 44 at 3–4. The court presumes the
reference to “I.S.” was a typographical error in the court’s order, unless counsel clarifies
otherwise in his response to this Order to Show Cause. The court further requests that Mr.
Jambeck clarify why the amount in the proof of payment, $14,679.11, is $5.39 less than the
amount in the approved settlement, $14,684.50.

guardian of A.V. and T.V. See Order at 7.

Accordingly, Mr. Jambeck is hereby ORDERED to show cause within seven (7) days why

he should not be sanctioned $250 for his failure to complete compliance with the court’s August

15, 2018 order, by not yet filing the proofs of payment described above or a stipulation of

dismissal, or why he has not requested an extension of time for completion.
