UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff,

v. NO. CIV. S-04-2483 LKK/DAD

RODNEY L. CUNNINGHAM;

PAMELA L. CUNNINGHAM; and

GUILD MORTGAGE CO.,

Defendants.

 /

On December 16, 2005, the court denied the government’s motion

for summary judgment in the above-captioned case because it was not

timely filed. On January 3, 2006, the government requested leave

to file its motion for summary judgment because “this action is

more properly adjudicated by summary judgment rather than by

trial.” Based on the record, the court agrees. The court,

however, hereby ORDERS as follows:

1. Counsel for the United States is ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE

in writing, within ten (10) days of the effective date of this

order, why sanctions should not issue in the above-captioned case

1 The court notes that by granting this request it does not

condone the failure to adhere to the court’s scheduling order. The

court admonishes plaintiff’s counsel that future non-compliance

with the court’s scheduling order, in this case or others, will

result in more severe sanctions. 

2

in the amount of One Hundred Fifty Dollars ($150).1

2. Hearing on the motion for summary judgment is CONTINUED

to February 27, 2005 on the court’s Law and Motion Calendar

beginning at 10:00 a.m. in Courtroom No. 4. 

3. An opposition brief, or statement of non-opposition, shall

be filed by February 6, 2006 at 4:00 p.m. A reply brief shall be

filed by February 13, 2006 at 4:00 p.m. 

IT IS SO ORDERED. 

DATED: January 4, 2006.
