ORDER

Plaintiffs are proceeding in this case pro se. While the Court construes the filings of pro se parties liberally, they are still required to comply with applicable rules. See, e.g., Ghazali v. Moran, 46 F.3d 52, 54 (9th Cir. 1995). In this instance, Plaintiffs were required to initiate the scheduling of a conference as required by Rule 26(f) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and participate in the creation of a proposed discovery plan. See Local Rule 26-4. Despite contact by Defendant's counsel through both email and telephone, Plaintiffs did not do so. See Docket No. 15. The Court will enter a scheduling order notwithstanding that deficiency. Nonetheless, the Court CAUTIONS Plaintiffs that they are required to comply with all applicable rules and the failure to do so in the future may result in the imposition of sanctions, up to and including dismissal of their case.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
