ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE WHY

v.
E. RASAVI,
Defendant.

Plaintiff Jorge Aquino is ordered to show cause on or before April 9, 2018 why this
United States District Court
Northern District of California
11
action should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute. Defendant has informed the Court
12
that the parties have reached a settlement and that he is waiting for plaintiff Aquino to sign
13
the settlement agreement. However, the case was reported settled in October 2017. (Dkt.
14
No. 35.) It is now March 2018. It appears from this delay that Aquino is failing to
15
prosecute this action as he is required to do. Accordingly, on or before April 9, 2018,
16
Aquino must either (1) sign the agreement, provide defendant with a copy of the signed
17
agreement, and inform this Court in writing that he has signed the agreement; or (2) inform
18
the Court that he has declined to sign the agreement and wishes to proceed to summary
19
judgment. Failure to file an appropriate and timely response to this order will result in the
20
dismissal of this action with prejudice for failure to prosecute. No extensions of time will
21
be granted.

If Aquino signs the agreement and sends defendant a copy, the Court assumes the
parties will file a stipulation for voluntary dismissal within a very short time thereafter.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated: March 1, 2018
