SAN JOSE DIVISION

Rudolf Fisher,

Plaintiff,

 v.

Aramark,

Defendant. /

NO. C 09-03617 JW 

ORDER DISMISSING CASE PURSUANT

TO FED. R. CIV. P. 41(b)

On January 27, 2010, the Court issued an Order Granting Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss

With Leave to Amend. (hereafter, “Order,” Docket Item No. 10.) The Court directed Plaintiff to

file his Amended Complaint on or before February 26, 2010. (Id. At 6.) The Court clearly warned

that, “[f]ailure to timely file an Amended Complaint consistent with the terms of this Order may

result in dismissal pursuant to Rule 41(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.” (Id.) To date,

Plaintiff has failed to file his Amended Complaint or otherwise communicate with the Court.

On March 5, 2010, the Court issued an Order to Show Cause re: Dismissal. (Docket Item

No. 11.) In its Order, the Court directed Plaintiff to file a certification on or before March 19, 2010, 

and show cause why this case should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute. (Id.) The Court

warned that if “Plaintiff fails to file the certification, the March 29 hearing will be vacated

automatically and the case will be dismissed.” (Id.) To date, Plaintiff has failed to file the required

certification. It appears that Plaintiff has abandoned this litigation.

 On March 25, 2010, the Clerk of Court issued a notice continuing the hearing in light of a

conflict in the Court’s schedule. (Docket Item No. 12.) However, the Court now finds that a

hearing on this matter is unnecessary due to Plaintiff’s failure to file the required amended pleading

or certification regarding his intention to prosecute this case.

2

Accordingly, the Court VACATES the April 2, 20101 hearing and DISMISSES this action

for lack of prosecution pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b). 

The Clerk shall close this file.
