CERTIFICATION AND ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE RE CONTEMPT
CHARLES F. EICK, Magistrate Judge.
IT IS ORDERED that Filmworks Entertainment, Inc. ("Filmworks") shall appear on November 20, 2017, at 10:30 a.m., in the Courtroom of the Honorable Percy Anderson, United States District Judge, Courtroom 9A of the United States Courthouse at 350 W. First Street, Los Angeles, California 90012, and then and there shall show cause, if there be any, why Filmworks should not be adjudged in contempt by reason of the facts certified herein.
In accordance with 28 U.S.C. section 636(e), the Magistrate Judge certifies the following facts:1
1. On October 26, 2017, this Court entered Judgment against Filmworks and in favor of Petitioner.
2. On June 6, 2017, Petitioner filed an "Application for Appearance and Examination of Judgment Debtor," seeking an order that Filmworks appear before the Magistrate Judge for a judgment debtor examination.
3. On June 21, 2017, the Magistrate Judge issued an "Order to Appear for Examination Re: Enforcement of Judgment," requiring that Filmworks appear before the Magistrate Judge on July 14, 2017, at 9:30 a.m in Courtroom 750 for a judgment debtor examination.
4. Filmworks did not appear in Courtroom 750 on July 14, 2017, and the Magistrate Judge then continued the judgment debtor examination of Filmworks to August 18, 2017, at 9:30 a.m. in Courtroom 750. See Minute Order, filed July 14, 2017 ("the Minute Order").
5. Petitioner has submitted a "Proof of Service" purportedly reflecting an August 8, 2017 personal service of, inter alia, the "Order to Appear for Examination, etc." and the Minute Order on Heidi Meier "agent for service of process" for Filmworks. This proof of service is ordered filed.
6. On August 18, 2017, at 9:30 a.m. in Courtroom 750 counsel for Petitioner appeared, but there was no appearance on behalf of Filmworks at that time and place.
7. On October 12, 2017, Petitioner filed a "[Proposed] Certification of Facts, etc." Because Petitioner's "[Proposed] Certification of Facts, etc." includes matters as to which the Magistrate Judge lacks personal knowledge and cannot properly take judicial notice, the Magistrate Judge has declined to adopt Petitioner's "[Proposed] Certification of Facts, etc." Instead, the Magistrate Judge now issues the present certification.
