BRUD ROSSMANN,

Plaintiff,

v.

RAY LETTEER,

Defendant.

Case No. 15-cv-05680-MEJ 

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

On December 10, 2015, Plaintiff Brud Rossmann filed an Application to Proceed in 

District Court Without Prepaying Fees or Costs. Dkt. No. 3. As the Application contained 

discrepancies, the Court ordered Plaintiff to file a declaration by December 30, 2015, explaining: 

(1) how he pays his monthly expenses, including the amount received for any source of income; 

(2) whether he is married and, if so, his spouse’s monthly salary; (3) whether he has a bank 

account and, if so, the present balance; and (4) whether the complaint raises claims that have been 

presented in other lawsuits. Plaintiff failed to respond.

Accordingly, the Court hereby ORDERS Plaintiff Brud Rossmann to show cause why this 

case should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute and failure to comply with court deadlines. 

Plaintiff shall file a declaration by January 19, 2016. If a responsive declaration is filed, the Court 

shall either issue an order based on the declaration or conduct a hearing on February 4, 2016 at 

10:00 a.m. in Courtroom B, 15th Floor, 450 Golden Gate Avenue, San Francisco, California. 

Notice is hereby provided to Plaintiff that the Court may dismiss this case without a hearing if no 

responsive declaration is filed. Thus, it is imperative that the Court receive a written response by 

the deadline above.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: January 5, 2016
