MICHAEL MURPHY,
Defendant.

Defendant filed a motion to dismiss Plaintiff’s Fourth Amended Complaint on September
27, 2017. Currently, the motion is set for a court hearing on November 9, 2017. Plaintiff Cynthia

12

Shavers is pursuing this action without legal representation. According to the local court rules,

13

Plaintiff should have filed any brief in opposition to Defendant’s motion by October 11, 2017.

14

See Civ. L.R. 7-3(a). The court has received no such opposition.

15

The court ORDERS Plaintiff to respond by November 8, 2017 and explain her failure to

16

respond to the motion. In addition, Plaintiff must simultaneously (1) submit her opposition to the

17

court or (2) file a statement of non-opposition to the motion. This order to show cause does not

18

indicate that the court will necessarily accept Plaintiff’s late submission. If Plaintiff does not

19

respond by November 8, 2017, Defendant’s motion may be granted or the case may be dismissed

20

for failure to prosecute.
