Plaintiff Brenda Harris, pro se, filed this action on June 16, 2015 appealing the
13
determination of the onset date of Harris’s disability by Defendant Carolyn Colvin, Acting
14
Commissioner of the Social Security Administration (the “Commissioner”). After receiving two
15
extensions of time from the Court, the Commissioner filed her answer on November 25, 2015 and
16
served it on Harris via certified mail. See dkt. 18.
17
Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 16-5, Harris was required to file a motion for summary
18
judgment no later than 28 days after receipt of the Commissioner’s answer. No motion has been
19
filed to date. Accordingly, Harris is hereby ORDERED to show cause why the case should not be
20
dismissed for failure to prosecute, by filing a response to this Order no later than April 29, 2016.
21
Harris’s response must include either her motion for summary judgment or a request for an
22
extension with an explanation of why additional time is needed. If Harris fails to file a response,
23
the case will be dismissed.
24

25
Bono Project’s Legal Help Center in either of the Oakland or San Francisco federal courthouses
26
