ORDER OF DISMISSAL

v.
CITY OF BELLINGHAM, et al.,

13

Defendants.

This matter comes before the court sua sponte. On October 22, 2013, the

15

17
18

court ordered plaintiffs to properly fill out a summons and file it within 14 days of
that order. Dkt. # 12. The Clerk issued a blank summons on October 22, 2013, and
the court had not received any filing to date.
On January 28, 2014, plaintiffs were ordered to show cause why this case

19

should not be dismissed without prejudice for violating a court order and failure to
20
21
22

prosecute. The court warned plaintiffs that if the court did not receive a properly
filled-out summons by February 11, 2014, the court would dismiss this case without
prejudice. Dkt. #13. There has been no response to the court’s order to show cause

23

and no properly filled-out summons has been filed.
