Baker v. Federal Express Corporation Doc. 31 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 8 9 10 JACQUELINE BAKER, Plaintiff, v. FEDERAL EXPRESS CORPORATION, Defendant. / 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 This matter was scheduled for an initial case management conference on Friday, March 25, 2011. By the Court's Order issued on January 5, 2011 (Docket No. 13), a Joint Case Management conference statement was due by March 18, 2011. The parties did not submit a Joint Case Management Statement, and Defendant represented that they were unable to do so, because Plaintiff failed to meet and confer with Defendant. (See Declaration of Craig Lindberg.) The Court's January 5, 2011 Order also required that all parties appear through lead counsel at the Case Management Conference. Lead Counsel Waukeen McCoy did not appear on behalf of Plaintiff for the Case Management Conference. Accordingly, on March 25, 2011, this Court issued an Order to Show Cause directing Mr. McCoy to show cause why sanctions in the amount of $500.00 should not be imposed for his failure to comply with this Court's Orders. On March 30, 2011, Mr. McCoy filed a timely response to the Order to Show Cause. However, having considered his response, the Court does not find that it demonstrates good cause for his failures to comply with this Court's Orders.
