Plaintiff filed this case, represented by counsel, on February 23, 2021. (Dkt. Nos. 1, 4.)

14

On September 13, 2022, the Court permitted Plaintiff’s counsel to withdraw. (Dkt. No. 94.) That

15

same Order scheduled a case management conference for November 17, 2022, with a joint case

16

management conference statement due November 10, 2022. Plaintiff did not contact Defendant to

17

prepare a joint case management conference statement, (Dkt. No. 96), and no new counsel has

18

appeared on Plaintiff’s behalf. On November 14, 2022, the Court ordered Plaintiff to appear at the

19

case management conference via Zoom if he wishes to continue to prosecute this action. (Dkt.

20

No. 97.) Plaintiff did not appear at the November 17, 2022 case management conference.

21

Accordingly, Plaintiff is ordered to show cause as to why this action should not be

22

dismissed for failure to prosecute pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41. Plaintiff shall

23

submit a written response to this Order by November 28, 2022 showing cause as to why this

24

action should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute. Plaintiff shall appear to show cause on

25
