UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

PHAT M. KHONG, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

UNITED STATES, 

Defendant. 

No. 2:15-cv-2135 TLN AC (PS) 

ORDER 

 On March 31, 2016, the undersigned ordered plaintiff to show cause why this matter 

should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute and for failure to comply with the court’s order. 

ECF No. 9. Plaintiff had not filed a Status Report within the time allotted, was apparently not 

taking any other action to prosecute the lawsuit, and had failed to respond to the government’s 

attempts to communicate with him about the case. Plaintiff has now signed a Joint Status Report 

(ECF No. 11), and it appears that he was unaware, at least in part, of the government’s attempts to 

communicate with him. 

 Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that: 

 1. The Order To Show Cause (ECF No. 9), is DISCHARGED; and
