Defendants.

Re: Dkt. No. 58

12
13

The Court issued an Order to Show Cause because on August 27, 2013, the plaintiffs’

14

attorneys failed to appear for a telephone ADR conference required by the Court and failed to

15

explain their absence to the Court. This followed their failure on August 14, 2013, to appear to

16

argue against a motion to dismiss and initial failure to explain their absence. This conduct is

17

obviously unacceptable. In response to the Order to Show Cause, Jeremy Alberts described his

18

failure to see the ECF notification setting the ADR call and Batkhand Zoljargal stated that she was

19

out of the country. In light of these responses, the Court expunges the Order to Show Cause. Any

20

further lapses will not receive such lenient consideration by the Court.
