United States District Court

Plaintiffs,

Defendants.

This case has been stayed due to the filing of bankruptcy by one of the Plaintiffs.

17

Counsel for the party in bankruptcy was directed to notify the Court within 30 of the lifting of

18

the bankruptcy. Despite the fact that the bankruptcy matter was closed in August 2008, counsel

19

for the party in bankruptcy did not file anything in this matter until the Court issued an Order

20

requiring a status report. In response to the Court’s Order, counsel for Plaintiffs stated that they

21

remain counsel of record for Plaintiffs in this matter, but also stated that they had not spoken to

22

Plaintiffs for approximately two years. Counsel for Plaintiffs represented that they were not

23

aware of any reason that would prevent this case from being dismissed.

24

On December 21, 2009, the Court issued an Order to Show Cause directing Plaintiffs to

25

show cause in writing no later than January 6, 2010, as to why this case should not be dismissed

26

for failure to prosecute. The Court also noted that failure to respond to this Order by January 6,

27

2010 shall result in dismissal of this matter without prejudice.

28

1

Plaintiffs did not respond to the Court’s Order to Show Cause. Accordingly, this case is

2

HEREBY DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE. The Clerk is directed to change the

3

designation from an administrative closure to a final closure.
