UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

JACK LOUMENA, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

PAMELA KENNEDY, et al., 

Defendants. 

Case No.: 14-CV-04165-LHK 

ORDER RE: RESPONSE TO ORDER 

TO SHOW CAUSE 

Re: Dkt. No. 21 

In response to the Court’s Order to Show Cause Why Case Should Not Be Dismissed For 

Failure to Prosecute, ECF No. 20, Plaintiff Jack Loumena filed a response indicating that 

“Plaintiff has diligently and with great effort pursued discovery and has engaged in settlement 

negotiations with Defendant Walter P Hammon in particular.” ECF No. 21 (Response) at 1. The 

Response does not explain why Plaintiff failed to timely file a response to the Defendants’ Motion 

to Dismiss, ECF No. 3. Nonetheless, because Plaintiff has responded to the Order to Show Cause, 

the Court will not dismiss the case for failure to prosecute and will decide the Motion to Dismiss 

on the merits. The briefing on the Motion to Dismiss is now closed, and the Court will not 

consider any further briefing on the Motion to Dismiss. The hearing on the Motion to Dismiss 

remains set for March 12, 2015 at 1:30 p.m.
