Re: Dkt. No. 45

13

The Court held a status conference in this case on June 10, 2016. The Court’s order

14

scheduling the status conference ordered the parties to appear in person through lead counsel. At

15

the conference, however, counsel for Defendant Aerotek, Inc., failed to appear.

16

Counsel for Plaintiff told the Court at the conference that Matthew A. Goodin, Esq.,

17

counsel for Defendant, had informed counsel for Plaintiff during the morning before the case

18

management conference that “something came up.”

19

In addition to Mr. Goodin, Defendant is represented by three other attorneys of record.

20

One of these, Elizabeth Jane Boca, Esq., is also designated as lead counsel. None of these

21

attorneys appeared at the status conference.

22

Accordingly, the Court HEREBY ORDERS Defendant’s lead counsel, Matthew A.

23

Goodin, Esq., and Elizabeth Jane Boca, Esq., to show cause why they should not each be

24

sanctioned in the amount of $250.00 for their failure to appear. The response to this Order to

25

Show Cause shall be due on June 24, 2016.

26

The Court further orders counsel for Defendant to review this Court’s Civil Local Rules

27

and the docket in this case and to submit any filings necessary to update the docket regarding the

28

identity and contact information of counsel and the designation of lead counsel for Defendant. See
