DEBORAH BARNES, Magistrate Judge.
Plaintiff Anthony Bochene is proceeding in this action pro se. This matter was referred to the undersigned in accordance with Local Rule 302(c)(21) and 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). On April 19, 2017, defendants Fay Servicing, LLC and Wilmington Trust, National Association filed a motion to dismiss and noticed that motion for hearing before the undersigned on June 9, 2017.

Failure to comply with applicable rules and law may be grounds for dismissal or any other sanction appropriate under the Local Rules. Id.
In light of plaintiff's pro se status, and in the interests of justice, the court will provide plaintiff with an opportunity to show good cause for plaintiff's conduct along with a final opportunity to oppose defendants' motion.
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:
1. Plaintiff show cause in writing within fourteen days of the date of this order as to why this case should not be dismissed for lack of prosecution1;
2. The June 9, 2017 hearing of defendants' motion to dismiss (ECF No. 8) is continued to Friday, July 7, 2017, at 10:00 a.m., at the United States District Court, 501 I Street, Sacramento, California, in Courtroom No. 27, before the undersigned;
3. On or before June 23, 2017, plaintiff shall file a statement of opposition or non-opposition to defendants' motion to dismiss; and
4. Plaintiff is cautioned that the failure to timely comply with this order may result in a recommendation that this case be dismissed.
