Plaintiff filed this action on April 30, 2013 and it was initially assigned to Magistrate Judge

18

Nathanael M. Cousins. Docket No. 1. Defendant filed an answer and a notice that the administrative

19

record was filed manually on July 30, 2013. Docket Nos. 9-10. Plaintiff was required to file a motion

20

for summary judgment or remand within 28 days of service of defendant’s answer. As of the date of

21

this Order, no motion has been filed.

22

On January 17, 2014, Judge Cousins issued an order directing plaintiff to show cause why the

23

case should not be dismissed for failure to comply with Civil Local Rule 16-5. Docket No. 13. Plaintiff

24

did not respond to this order. On March 5, 2014, Judge Cousins issued a second order directing plaintiff

25

to show cause why the case should not be dismissed and directing plaintiff to consent or decline

26

magistrate judge jurisdiction. Docket No. 15. Plaintiff did not respond to this order, and thus did not

27

consent to magistrate judge jurisdiction; the case was reassigned to this Court on June 16, 2014. Docket

28

Nos. 16-17.

1

Plaintiff is directed to SHOW CAUSE why this case should not be dismissed by filing a

2

motion for summary judgment or remand no later than August 15, 2014. If plaintiff does not file

3

a motion by this date, the Court will dismiss this appeal for failure to prosecute without further

4

notice.
