NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

San Francisco Division

MOHAMMAD MINHAJ KHOKHAR,

Plaintiff,

v.

AMJAD YOUSUF, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 15-cv-06043-LB 

ORDER

The court understands that the plaintiff filed a motion initially seeking default judgment, see 

ECF No. 14, but that the motion was subsequently amended to seek only the entry of default 

against the defendants, see ECF No. 18-1. Now that the clerk has entered default, the plaintiff 

must renew his motion for default judgment. (See ECF Nos. 18, 18-1). 

This is the ordinary process for a plaintiff seeking default judgment: first, the plaintiff must 

move for the entry of default against the defendant; second, the clerk must enter default; third, the 

plaintiff must move for default judgment either by the clerk or by the court. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 

55(a), (b). The clerk entered default in this case. (See ECF No. 18.) The next step is for the 

plaintiff to file a new motion for default judgment.

To allow sufficient time for this process, the court vacates the case-management conference 

now set for July 28 and resets it for October 13 at 9:30 a.m. The plaintiff may notice his defaultjudgment motion for an earlier date.
