UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ERWIN WASHINGTON,

Plaintiff,

v.

UNITED AIR LINES, INC., et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 15-cv-00471-VC 

ORDER RE WASHINGTON'S ORAL

REQUEST FOR LEAVE TO DISMISS

At the November 11, 2016 case management conference, Plaintiff Washington orally 

sought leave to voluntarily dismiss his case with prejudice. Washington has not yet paid the 

monetary sanctions the Court first ordered Washington to pay in its September 20, 2016 Order 

(Dkt. No. 174). Washington has repeatedly failed to pay these sanctions, despite the Court 

ordering him to do so again in its Order to Show Cause (Dkt. No. 181), and yet again in its Order 

Sanctioning Plaintiff Washington for Discovery Abuses (Dkt. No. 192). 

By November 17, 2016, Washington is ordered to file a request for dismissal stating the 

reasons why and under what circumstances his case should be dismissed. United may file a 

response on November 21, 2016. The Court will not entertain this request for dismissal unless 

and until Washington actually pays the defendants $1,100; the post-dated check that has been 

sent does not constitute payment.

The parties are instructed to confer with Judge Corley regarding the scheduling of
