Plaintiffs,
ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

v.
WELLS FARGO BANK, N.A., et al.,
Defendants.

The hearing on the motion to dismiss is vacated, and the plaintiffs are ordered to show
cause why this case should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute. The plaintiffs' counsel is
further ordered to show cause why he should not be sanctioned and referred to the State Bar in
light of what appears to be a pattern of abandoning cases removed to federal court. See Barajas
