UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

OLABISI BODUNDE,

Plaintiff,

v.

WALGREENS BOOTS ALLIANCE, INC.,

Defendant.

Case No. 1:24-cv-00985-JLT-SAB

ORDER REQUIRING DEFENDANT TO 

SHOW CAUSE WITHIN FOURTEEN DAYS 

WHY DEFAULT SHOULD NOT BE 

ENTERED

FOURTEEN-DAY DEADLINE

On March 26, 2024, Olabisi Bodunde (“Plaintiff”) filed this action against Walgreens 

Boots Alliance, Inc. (“Defendant”) in the Northern District of Illinois. (ECF No. 1.) On May 

30, 2024, Defendant filed a motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim. (ECF No. 18-20.) On 

June 10, 2024, an order was filed granting Plaintiff’s unopposed motion to stay this matter 

pending resolution of a motion to transfer the action to the United States Judicial Panel on 

Multidistrict Litigation (“MDL”) and the motion to dismiss was denied without prejudice. (ECF 

No. 26.) On August 2, 2024, a joint status report was filed informing the Court that the MDL 

had denied Plaintiff’s motion and requesting leave to file an updated status report suggesting 

next steps. (ECF No. 27.) On August 21, 2024, this matter was transferred to the Eastern 

District of California. (ECF No. 30.) 

On August 23, 2024, the Court provided that the parties may file a joint status report 

suggesting next steps but noted that a responsive pleading is due. (ECF No. 35 at 2.)

Accordingly, the Court ordered that Defendant file a responsive pleading on or before September

Accordingly, it is HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Within fourteen (14) days from the date of service of this order, Defendant shall 

show cause in writing why default should not be entered; and

2. To facilitate the ability to comply with this order, Defendant’s obligation to 

respond to the complaint is extended fourteen (14) days from the date of service 

of this order.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
