that on March 10, 2009, Defendant Fleetwood filed a voluntary Chapter 11 bankruptcy

petition in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California,

Riverside Division, Case No. 09-14254-MJ. (docket # 31) It is unknown what effect, if

any, Defendant Fleetwood’s bankruptcy petition will have on its alleged settlement with

On the Court’s own motion,

IT IS ORDERED staying this lawsuit against Defendant Fleetwood and

placing this lawsuit on inactive status until June 1, 2009.

This lawsuit against Defendants Beaudry and Fleetwood will be dismissed

on June 1, 2009 pursuant to Rule 41(b) (lack of prosecution), FED.R.CIV.P., unless prior

to the scheduled dismissal date, Plaintiffs demonstrate in writing that Plaintiffs have

moved to lift the stay in the bankruptcy court but the request has not been ruled upon or

has been denied; Plaintiffs have sought to reduce the claim(s) against the subject debtors

Beaudry and Fleetwood to judgment in the bankruptcy court in an adversary proceeding

and the adversary proceeding has not yet been adjudicated despite Plaintiffs’ due

diligence in seeking its resolution; or Plaintiffs have timely demonstrated a reasonable

basis for continuance of this lawsuit against Defendants Beaudry and Fleetwood on

inactive status.

Any party may ask the Court to schedule an informal status conference

before June 1, 2009 to inform the Court what action, if any, has been undertaken in the

bankruptcy court that would permit this lawsuit against Defendants Beaudry and

Fleetwood to proceed.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Court’s March 4, 2009 Order is

hereby VACATED.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that all counsel shall use proper

capitalization in all future captions as mandated by LRCiv 7.1(a)(3).
