UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

The Court is in receipt of Defendant Contra Costa College District’s letter, filed August 23,

13

2011, regarding Plaintiff Robert Moore’s failure to comply with his discovery obligations. Dkt. No.

14

65. In its letter, Defendant states that Plaintiff has not responded to its requests to stipulate to a

15

deposition date, nor has he provided complete and verified discovery requests or complete

16

initial disclosures. Defendant states that it has met and conferred with Plaintiff since March 2011 in

17

its efforts to obtain basic discovery, but Plaintiff has not provided complete initial disclosures or

18

responses to initial discovery requests (interrogatories and production requests). This failure comes

19

despite the Court’s August 8, 2011 order directing Plaintiff to comply with his discovery

20

obligations. Dkt. No. 63. Defendant now requests dismissal of this case due to Plaintiff’s failure to

21

comply.

22

Good cause appearing, the Court hereby ORDERS Plaintiff Robert Moore to show cause

23

why this case should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute and failure to comply with his

24

discovery obligations, despite previous orders from the Court. Plaintiff shall file a declaration in

25

response by September 15, 2011.
