No. C 04-2077 MEJ

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

Plaintiff commenced this action on May 26, 2004. On July 19, 2004, plaintiff requested an Entry of

Default by the Clerk, which was subsequently granted on July 29, 2004. On September 16, 2004, plaintiff

moved for an Ex Parte Application to Remove Case Management Conference from Calendar in Light of

the Entry of Default. In support of the Ex Parte Application, plaintiff's counsel represented that a Motion

for Entry of Default Judgment would be filed within "sixty days" of October 2004. Plaintiff's request was

GRANTED. The Court removed the above-captioned matter from the calendar and ORDERED plaintiff

to file the Motion for Entry of Default Judgment within "sixty days" of the Court's ORDER. 

To date, plaintiff has not submitted a Motion for Entry of Default Judgment or provided an update

as to the status of the case. The Court finds it appropriate to dismiss this matter for failure to prosecute,

unless Plaintiff can show good cause why the case should remain active. Accordingly, the Court hereby
