15
By order dated August 26, 2013, this Court set the case management conference for
16
November 8, 2013, and required personal appearances by counsel. On Friday, November 8,
17
2013, this Court held the initial case management conference in this matter. Paul V. Simpson,
18
counsel for Defendant Zolman Construction and Development, Inc. did not appear.
19
Accordingly, on November 12, 2013, counsel was ordered to show cause as to why the
20
Court should not impose monetary sanctions on him in the amount of $500.00. The Court
21
received counsel’s response on November 18, 2013 and finds the failure to attend the case
22
management conference unjustified. Accordingly, counsel is sanctioned in the amount of $250
23
for failure to comply with this Court’s orders. Counsel shall pay sanctions to the Clerk of the
24
Court by no later than December 9, 2013.
25
IT IS SO ORDERED.
