Case No. 17-cv-04360-WHO
ORDER RE ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE
WHY PLAINTIFF DANIEL DYDZAK
SHOULD NOT BE DECLARED A
VEXATIOUS LITIGANT
Re: Dkt. No. 37

On October 31, 2017, then-presiding Judge Chen issued an Order to Show Cause requiring

12
13

plaintiff Daniel Dydzak to respond on or before November 30, 2017 as to why he should not be

14

declared a vexatious litigant in light of his filings and litigation conduct in the Central and

15

Northern Districts of California. Dkt. No. 37 n.1. As of today’s date, Mr. Dydzak has not filed an

16

opposition or other response to that Order to Show Cause.

17

This case has been reassigned to me and the Order to Show Cause is still pending. In light

18

of the reassignment, I will give Mr. Dydzak one more opportunity to respond to the Order to Show

19

Cause.

20

In light of the pattern of harassing behavior and frivolous filings described in Judge Chen’s

21

October 31, 2017 Order to Show Cause, and considering Dydzak’s most recent filing (Dydzak v.

22

Chen et al., Case No. 17-cv-06843-RS ), plaintiff Daniel Dydzak is ORDERED TO SHOW

23

CAUSE (1) why he should not be declared a vexatious litigant by this Court and (2) why he

24

should not be prohibited from initiating any further litigation in this or any other federal court

25

raising any claim based on, arising out of, or related to his disbarment or alleging that orders

26

entered in lawsuits previously filed by him related to the same were rigged, fixed, or otherwise

27

unlawful or illegitimate, without prior authorization from the appropriate federal court. In the

28

absence of such a showing, Mr. Dydzak will be declared a vexatious litigant and will be required

1

to provide security in the amount of $5,000 for each defendant against whom he seeks to proceed

2

with Court authorization, as described above.

3

Plaintiff’s response to this Order to Show Cause must be filed no later than January 29,

4

2018 in a single filing not to exceed 15 double-spaced pages, inclusive of all exhibits and

5

attachments, and formatted consistently with the local rules.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
