ORDER IMPOSING SANCTIONS

POUNCE CONSULTING, INC., et al.,

11
United States District Court
Northern District of California

Case No. 17-cv-04732-PJH

Plaintiff,

8

Defendants.

14

In response to the court’s second order to show cause, defendant’s counsel,

15

Jason Coberly, has advised that he has no excuse for failing to appear as ordered at the

16

November 16, 2017 Case Management Conference. As the court noted in the second

17

order to show cause, this was Coberly’s second failure to appear this week in this

18

relatively new case. The court’s review of the records reflects that Coberly appears to

19

have been recently admitted to practice in the Northern District of California. If he wishes

20

to maintain that status and avoid a referral to this court’s Standing Committee on

21

Professional Conduct, he must demonstrate an ability to comply with the Local Rules and

22

specific orders of this court. Sanctions are hereby imposed in the amount of $250.00

23

payable to the registry of this court within 30 days of the date of this order.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
