FINDS that this Court's permanent injunction order, filed February 8, 2013 (Doc. 259) ("Injunction Order"), required Mr. Caballero to file a report of compliance with the Injunction Order by the due date of April 9, 2013, that Mr. Caballero failed to comply with that deadline, and that when Mr. Caballero finally filed a document entitled "Report of Compliance" on April 30, 2013 (Docs. 273 & 275), the report did not contain any detail as to the manner and form of Mr. Caballero's compliance with the Court's Injunction Order;
FINDS that, after the Court ordered Mr. Caballero to file a supplemental Report of Compliance addressing these deficiencies (Doc. 277), Mr. Caballero filed a Supplemental Report of Compliance on May 29, 2013 (Doc. 278) admitting that:
• he has not yet complied with Paragraph 2(o) of the injunction, requiring him to cease "[h]olding or using a bank account, checks, credit card, debit card or other financial product under any name containing the Marks," seeking "a 30 day extension to do so," and representing that he would "file a supplement . . . shortly hereafter";
• he has not yet complied with Paragraph 3(b) of the injunction, requiring him to "[a]bandon, withdraw, or otherwise terminate the legal effect of any fictitious business name statements, business licenses, public records, or other such documents that he may have filed in any jurisdiction, as to which he has used [the Marks]," seeking "a 30 day extension to do so," and representing that he would "file a supplement . . . shortly hereafter";
• he has not yet complied with Paragraph 3(c) of the injunction, requiring him to "[c]lose any bank account, credit card account, debit card account, or other account held under any name containing the Marks . . . or permanently change all names and account titles associated with such accounts to names that do not contain the Marks," seeking "a 30 day extension to do so," and representing that he would "file a supplement . . . shortly hereafter"; and
• he has not yet complied with Paragraph 4 of the injunction, requiring him to transfer to the plaintiff Shingle Springs Band of Miwok Indians ("the Tribe"), at his own cost, the following domain names:
