ORDER RE: SEPTEMBER 21, 2018 COMPLIANCE HEARING
Re: Dkt. No. 21
YVONNE GONZALEZ ROGERS, District Judge.
On July 10, 2018, the Court agreed to grant the parties' joint request to continue the case management conference but required, at a minimum, the filing of a "joint status report on the progress of the audit proceedings" by September 14, 2018. (Dkt. No. 20.) The Court has received an untimely statement by plaintiffs themselves regarding the progress of the audit proceedings underway in this case, filed on September 17, 2018, which left many questions unanswered. (Dkt. No. 21.)
First, the Court issues an ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE why defendant should not be sanctioned in the amount of $200.00 for failing to comply with this Court's order. Plaintiffs are hereby warned to comply with this Court's orders in a timely fashion. A hearing on this Order to Show Cause will be held on Monday, October 1, 2018 on the Court's 2:01 a.m. Calendar, in the Federal Courthouse, 1301 Clay Street, Oakland, California, in Courtroom 1.
By no later than Monday, September 24, 2018, defendant must file a written response to this Order to Show Cause why they should not be sanctioned for their failure to comply with the stated rule. If the Court is satisfied with the defendant's response, defense counsel need not appear and the hearing will be taken off calendar. Otherwise, lead trial counsel must personally appear at the hearing. Neither a special appearance nor a telephonic appearance will be permitted. Failure to file a joint statement, written response or to appear personally will be deemed an admission that no good cause exists and that the imposition of monetary sanctions is appropriate.
Second, the Court hereby sets a conference for Monday, October 1, 2018 at 2:01 p.m. in the Federal Courthouse, 1301 Clay Street, Oakland, California, in Courtroom 1 to resolve all outstanding issues with respect to the ongoing audit. By no later than Monday, September 24, 2018, parties may file a joint statement containing additional information regarding those outstanding issues. If the Court is satisfied that the issues related to the ongoing audit have been resolved, the parties need not appear and the conference will be taken off calendar.
The Court VACATES the compliance hearing currently scheduled for Friday, September 21, 2018.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
