15

the telephone, but pro se plaintiff Ernesto Copon Abueg, Jr. did not appear, nor did he contact the Court

17

Defendants’ Case Management Statement was filed without plaintiff’s participation. Defendants

18

represent that they “have not been able to establish regular communication with the Plaintiff.” Dkt. 36,

Plaintiff is hereby ORDERED to show cause, in writing filed with the Court and served on

22

opposing counsel no later than October 24, 2011, why he failed to appear and whether he intends to

23

continue with this action. In the event an adequate response is not provided by October 24, 2011, this
