LEONA MARINO, 

PLAINTIFF, 

V. 

CACAFE, INC., ET AL., 

DEFENDANTS.

CASE NO. 16-cv-06291-YGR 

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE RE: SANCTIONS 

FOR FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH STANDING 

ORDER

This Court’s Standing Order In Civil Cases requires that, at case management 

conferences, “each party shall be represented at case management conferences by lead trial 

counsel or counsel with authority to enter into stipulations and make admissions pursuant to Fed. 

R. Civ. P. 16(a) and (c), as well as fully prepared to address all of the matters in the CAND CMC 

Order and Civil L.R. 16-10(b).” (Standing Order in Civil Cases, ¶ 6.) The Standing Order further 

provides that: 

Failure to do so shall be considered grounds for sanctions. Because of the 

substantive discussions that occur during case management conferences, 

telephonic appearances are disfavored. The Court will grant requests to appear 

by telephone only upon a compelling showing of good cause. The routine 

inconveniences of travel do not constitute good cause. 

 An initial case management conference in this matter was scheduled for March 6, 2017. 

Counsel appearing for defendant CACafe, Inc. was not lead trial counsel or counsel with the 

requisite authority. 

Therefore, WON KEE LEE (AKA DAN LEE), counsel for defendant CACafe, Inc., is 

ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE why he should not be sanctioned in the amount of $200.00 for failure 

to comply with this Court’s Standing Order. 

A hearing on this Order to Show Cause will be held on Friday, March 24, 2017, on the 

Court’s 9:01a.m. Calendar, in the Federal Courthouse, 1301 Clay Street, Oakland, California, in 

Courtroom 1.

By no later than Friday, March 17, 2017, WON KEE LEE (AKA DAN LEE) must file a 

written response to this Order to Show Cause. If the Court is satisfied with the response, it may 

vacate the hearing on the Order to Show Cause. Otherwise, WON KEE LEE (AKA DAN LEE) must 

personally appear at the hearing. Neither a special appearance nor a telephonic appearance will 

be permitted. Failure to file a written response or to appear personally will be deemed an 

admission that no good cause exists and that the imposition of monetary sanctions is appropriate. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
