For the Northern District of California

Case No. C-11-00057 JCS

Defendant(s).
___________________________________/

On November 28, 2011, the Court denied Plaintiff’s Application for Order To Show Cause;

14

Award of Attorneys’ Fees; and Other Appropriate Relief [Docket No. 57]. Subsequently, Plaintiff

15

filed a letter requesting that the Court reconsider its decision, contending that an Order to Show

16

Cause is appropriate because non-party Shamica D.D. Simpson Sr. refused to comply with the

17

Court’s subpoena requiring that she appear for deposition and therefore should be liable for fees and

18

costs incurred regardless of whether the action was dismissed. Upon reconsideration, the Court

19

agrees. Therefore, non-party Shamica D.D. Simpson Sr. shall appear and show cause why she

20

should not be held liable for attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in connection with her failure to

21

comply with the subpoena issued by the Court in this action. A show cause hearing is set for Friday,

22

February 10, 2012 at 1:30 p.m. in Courtroom G, 450 Golden Gate Avenue, San Francisco, CA. Ms.

23

Simpson may file a written response to this Order no later than Friday, February 3, 2012.

24

IT IS SO ORDERED.
