against him for his failure to participate in these proceedings and obey the orders of this Court. See, 

Thompson v. Housing Auth., 782 F.2d 829, 831 (9th Cir.1986) (“District courts have inherent power to 

control their dockets. In the exercise of that power they may impose sanctions including, where 

appropriate, default or dismissal.”) 

Failure to appear at the hearing on the Order to Show Cause will result in a 

recommendation that default be entered against Defendant Ruben Garcia Aranda and all his 

rights in this case forfeited. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
