NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SIDNEY NAIMAN,

Plaintiff,

v.

TRUE RENEWABLE ENERGY, 

INCORPORATED, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 18-cv-04540-KAW 

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

Re: Dkt. No. 36

On July 17, 2019, Plaintiff filed a voluntary dismissal of the individual claims with 

prejudice, and class claims without prejudice. (Dkt. No. 35.) That same day, the Court ordered 

Plaintiff to file a dismissal within 60 days, absent any extension by the Court. (Dkt. No. 36.) The 

Court further stated that to the extent Plaintiff sought to dismiss the class claims, Plaintiff must 

address the Diaz factors. Diaz v. Tr. Territory of Pac. Islands, 876 F.2d 1404, 1408 (9th Cir. 

1989) (listing factors the court must inquire into to determine whether there is prejudice to the 

class members from dismissal of the class claims).

On September 16, 2019, Plaintiff filed a notice to extend the time to file dispositive 

documentation by thirty days in order to finalize the settlement agreement. (Dkt. No. 37.) Thus, 

Plaintiff’s dismissal was due by October 16, 2019.
