CHRIS GUS KANIOS, et al.,
Defendants.
United States District Court
Northern District of California

Plaintiff Navjeet Singh Banga advances a host of claims related to his attendance at and
14
dismissal from John F. Kennedy University (“JFKU”) Law School against defendants Chris Gus
15
Kanios, Dean Barbieri, Eleanor Armstrong, Debra Bean, JFKU, and National University
16
(collectively, “defendants”). Banga’s claims have already been dismissed once with leave to
17
amend. Banga has since filed an amended complaint, which defendants moved to dismiss on
18
February 21, 2017. Banga’s deadline to file a response in opposition — March 7, 2017, see Civ.
19
Local R. 7-3(a) — came and went without a response. Instead, Banga filed an untimely response
20
nearly a month later, on April 6.
21
This was not Banga’s first failure to follow the Court’s time limits. After failing to file
22
timely opposition to defendants’ prior motion to dismiss, Banga made an untimely (and
23
unsuccessful) motion to extend his response deadline in order to seek the assistance of counsel.
24
Banga is hereby admonished that he must comply with the Court’s time limits. Failure to do so
25
may result in adverse action by the Court, as well as dispositive motions being decided in
26
defendants’ favor without Banga being heard.
27
In addition to arriving late, Banga’s response to defendant’s motion appears to be
28
incomplete; it cuts off abruptly after two pages. So that defendants’ motion can be decided with
1
the benefit of the adversarial process, Banga shall have until Thursday, April 20, to supplement his
2
response, should he choose to do so. Any supplemental filing arriving after this deadline — and
3
any future untimely filings — may not be considered by the Court. In light of Banga’s
4
opportunity to supplement his response, defendants are hereby given until Thursday, April 27, to
5
file any reply brief, and the hearing set for April 20 is hereby continued to Thursday, May 4.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
