ORDER DISMISSING CASE

Defendant.

In this debt collection action, defendant PG&E filed a motion to dismiss on September

15

4. Pro se plaintiff Elias Stavrinides’ response was due on September 18. After plaintiff failed

16

to file any response, Magistrate Judge Kandis Westmore, who then presided over the case,

17

issued an order for plaintiff to show cause, by October 15, as to why he did not timely respond

18

to defendant’s motion (Dkt. No. 18). Plaintiff did not respond to that order. The case was then

19

reassigned to the undersigned judge. A second order to show cause requested that plaintiff

20

show cause, in writing, why this case should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute by Noon

21

on October 27. The order warned that failure to respond, or to show sufficient cause as to why

22

plaintiff has not responded to previous orders, would result in dismissal of the case for failure to

23

prosecute (Dkt. No. 26). Plaintiff again failed to file any response. This case is hereby

24

DISMISSED FOR FAILURE TO PROSECUTE. The CLERK SHALL PLEASE CLOSE THE FILE.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
