ROBERT MCCARTHY,

Plaintiff,

v.

LITTIE B. NASH, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 16-cv-02312-HSG 

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

Re: Dkt. No. 10

On April 27, 2016, Plaintiff Robert McCarthy filed this action against Defendants Trustee 

Littie B. Nash, Cappo Management XXVIII, and Joe Shaghasi, asserting violation of (1) the 

Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”) and (2) California accessibility laws. Dkt. No. 1. On 

April 28, 2016, the Court entered the standard scheduling order for cases asserting denial of right 

of access under the ADA. Dkt. No. 4. 

Under the scheduling order, the last day for Plaintiff to file a “Notice of Need for 

Mediation” was September 21, 2016. Id. Plaintiff failed to file any notice, and on October 18, 

2016, the Court ordered Plaintiff to show cause why he did not file a “Notice of Need for 

Mediation” by the Court’s deadline. Dkt. No. 10. The order to show cause directed Plaintiff to 

file a short statement of no more than two pages explaining the status of this action by October 21, 

2016. Id. Plaintiff’s deadline to file a status report has passed, and Plaintiff has again failed to 

comply with the Court’s deadline.
