UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ELDRIDGE JOHNSON,

Plaintiff,

v.

UNITED AIRLINES, INC., et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 12-cv-02730-VC 

ORDER GRANTING MOTION FOR 

LEAVE TO AMEND AND ORDER TO 

SHOW CAUSE

Re: Dkt. No. 402

The unopposed motion to amend the answer is granted. Counsel for the plaintiff is 

ordered to show cause why they should not be sanctioned under Rule 11, 28 U.S.C. § 1927, 

and/or the court's inherent powers, and required to pay the defendants' costs and fees incurred in 

filing these motions, in light of their apparent failure to respond to requests for consent to amend 

and their apparent bad faith refusal to consent to amend. A written response is due Monday, 

December 5, 2016. Counsel for both sides will be heard on this issue at the telephonic case 

management conference scheduled for December 8, 2016.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: November 30, 2016
