UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

IDALIA J. MORGUITIA-JOHNSON,

Plaintiff,

v.

CITY OF FRESNO, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 1:14-cv-00127-LJO-SKO

ORDER DISCHARGING MARCH 9, 2015 

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE RE 

CONTEMPT

(Doc. 34)

On March 6, 2015, Defendants filed an ex parte application for a court order to compel the 

deposition of Tasha Cole. (Doc. 31.) The Court construed this as an application to issue an Order 

to Show Cause for Tasha Cole's failure to appear for a deposition pursuant to a duly served 

subpoena. (Doc. 34.) On March 9, 2015, the Court issued an order that Ms. Cole appear on 

March 18, 2015, to show cause why she should not be held in contempt for her failure to comply 

with the deposition subpoena served on her by Defendants. (Doc. 34.) 

On March 18, 2015, Ms. Cole appeared at the hearing on the order to show cause, stated 

she was willing to comply with the deposition subpoena, and agreed to appear at 11:00 a.m. for a 

deposition at the location indicated by Defendants in open court. (Doc. 39.) Defendants were 

instructed to file a declaration indicating whether the deposition was completed. 

On March 20, 2015, Defendants filed a declaration stating that Ms. Cole's deposition was 

completed on March 18, 2015, and requested that the order to show cause be discharged.
