APRIL D. RICHMOND,

United States District Court
Northern District of California

Case No. 4:17-cv-01469-KAW

Defendant.

13

On August 31, 2017, the Court held a hearing on Defendant April D. Richmond’s motion

14

to dismiss, at which she did not appear. Thus, Defendant was ordered to show cause, in writing, by

15

no later than September 20, 2017, to explain why she did not appear and why she should not pay

16

monetary sanctions in the amount of $150 for her failure to appear at the hearing on the motion

17

that she filed. Defendant responded to the order to show cause on October 3, 2017, and explained

18

that she made a clerical mistake and removed the hearing from her calendar. (Dkt. No. 25.) She

19

also apologized for the late response, and stated that the court order was delivered to the wrong

20

address. Id.

21

Accordingly, the Court DISCHARGES the order to show cause, and Defendant is not

22

required to pay sanctions. Defendant is advised, however, that any future failure to respond timely

23

or meet required case deadlines may result in monetary sanctions or judgment being entered

24

against her.
