UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SCOTT JOHNSON,

Plaintiff,

v.

MIRI PIRI, INC., et al.,

Defendants.

No. 2:14-cv-1442-GEB-KJN

ORDER

On September 21, 2015, the court ordered plaintiff’s counsel and defendants’ counsel to 

each pay the Clerk of Court $150.00 in sanctions based on their failure to comply with the court’s 

prior orders. (ECF No. 17.) Sanctions were due within fourteen (14) days of the order, i.e., by 

October 5, 2015. (Id.) The order cautioned that failure to timely comply would result in 

increased sanctions. (Id.)

The court’s records indicate that plaintiff’s counsel timely paid the sanctions. However, 

although the applicable deadline has now passed, defendants’ counsel failed to pay the ordered 

sanctions. As such, the court regrettably imposes increased sanctions on defendants’ counsel.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Within fourteen (14) days of this order, defendants’ counsel shall pay the Clerk of 

Court $500.00 in sanctions based on his multiple failures to comply with court orders.

Defendants’ counsel shall NOT directly or indirectly attempt to recover such sanctions 

from his clients.

2. Failure to timely comply with this order may result in further increased sanctions and 

a referral to the California State Bar.

IT IS SO ORDERED. 

Dated: October 7, 2015
