Plaintiff,
ORDER RE RESPONSES TO ORDER
TO SHOW CAUSE
v.

PARAMJIT KAUR, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 21-cv-08204-SVK
On July 28, 2022, Plaintiff filed a notice stating that this case had settled and that Plaintiff
8
expected the settlement would be consummated within 60 days and a dismissal would be filed.
9
Dkt. 28. The Court issued an Order to Show Cause re Settlement (“OSC”), with the hearing set
10
for September 27, 2022. Dkt. 29. At Plaintiff’s request, the OSC hearing has been continued
11
twice. Dkt. 31, 33. In both instances, Plaintiff filed a response to the OSC stating that the
12
settlement agreement had been signed. Dkt. 30, 32. In Plaintiff’s September 12, 2022 response to
13
OSC, Plaintiff stated that he expected to file a dismissal within 60 days. Dkt. 30. In Plaintiff’s
14
October 10, 2022 response to OSC, Plaintiff stated that the case would be ripe for dismissal “in
15
approximately thirty (30) days from updated show cause/dismissal deadline of October 18, 2022.”
16
Dkt. 32. The OSC hearing is currently scheduled for November 22, 2022. See Dkt. 33.
17
On November 18, 2022, Plaintiff filed a response to OSC stating that he “anticipates filing
18
a dismissal within the coming sixty (60) days.” Dkt. 35. Plaintiff’s latest response to OSC is
19
inadequate because it inconsistent with his previous estimates of when a dismissal will be filed
20
and does not explain the shifting timeline. However, Defendant’s response to OSC states that the
21
last settlement payment was mailed to Plaintiff’s counsel on November 18, 2022. Dkt. 36.
22
Accordingly, the Court will grant one final continuance of the OSC to December 13, 2022 at
23
10:00 a.m. A dismissal is due by December 6, 2022.
