No. C 09-00767 MMC (MEJ)

THIRD ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

On February 5, 2010, the Court ordered Plaintiff to contact Defendant’s counsel, David

Silberman, within five days and provide her availability for a meet and confer session regarding the

issues raised in Mr. Silberman’s December 22, 2009 Declaration. (Dkt. #42.) The Court is now in

receipt Mr. Silberman’s February 12, 2010 letter (Dkt. #43) regarding Plaintiff’s failure to comply

with the February 5 Order, as well as her continued failure to comply with discovery obligations in

general. Plaintiff’s failure to diligently prosecute her case is consistent, and potentially cause for

dismissal pursuant to Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 37(b)(2) and 41(b). Accordingly, the Court

hereby ORDERS Plaintiff to show cause why this case should not be dismissed pursuant to Rules

37(b)(2) and 41(b). Plaintiff shall file a declaration by February 25, 2010, and the Court shall

conduct a hearing on March 4, 2010 at 10:00 a.m. in Courtroom B, 15th Floor, 450 Golden Gate

Avenue, San Francisco, California.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
