ORDER REGARDING PLAINTIFF’S FAILURE TO
FILE AN OPPOSITION TO DEFENDANTS'
MOTIONS TO DISMISS; RESETTING MOTION

JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, f/k/a Washington
Mutual Bank, et al.,
Defendants.

The defendants in this case have filed motions with the Court that seek to dismiss plaintiff's
18
lawsuit. They have made two separate motions for dismissal. The first motion was filed on March
19
21, 2014. (Dkt. No. 7.) The second motion was filed April 8, 2014. (Dkt. No. 13.)
Under this Court’s Civil Local Rule 7-3(a), the plaintiff, Robert Sawaya, is required to
20
21
respond to both motions by filing either (1) a brief opposing each motion to dismiss or (2) a notice
22
stating that he does not oppose dismissal. He has already missed the deadline to respond to the first
23
motion, which passed on April 4, 2014. The deadline to respond to the second motion is April 22,
24
2014.1
25
In deference to Mr. Sawaya's pro se status (that is, a person with no lawyer), the Court
26
hereby extends Mr. Sawaya's time to file a response to both the first and the second motion to
27
dismiss. That deadline is now April 29, 2014.

The Court warns Mr. Sawaya that if he does not file a response to defendants' motions by
2
April 29, 2014, the Court will dismiss his case for "failure to prosecute," that is, a failure to meet
3
deadlines and keep the lawsuit moving forward. If Mr. Sawaya timely files a response, then
4
defendants shall file and serve any reply no more than seven days later. Civ. L.R. 7-3(c).
