IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SAN JOSE DIVISION

Autodesk, Inc.,

Plaintiff,

 v.

Florida Benchmark, Inc.,

Defendant. /

NO. C 07-00848 JW 

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

RE: SETTLEMENT

On August 30, 2007, Plaintiff informed the Court that the above-entitled matter has reached a

settlement. (See Docket Item No. 13.) In light of the settlement, the Court vacates all trial and

pretrial dates. Although parties want this case to remain open until June 2008 when they will have

met the obligations of their settlement, the Court’s practice is to clear its docket once a case is

settled. Accordingly, on or before November 5, 2007, the parties shall file a stipulated dismissal

pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a). 

If a dismissal is not filed by the specified date, all parties shall appear in Courtroom No. 8,

4th Floor, United States District Court, 280 South First Street, San Jose, Ca. on November 19, 2007

at 9:00 a.m. and to show cause, if any, why the case should not be dismissed pursuant to Fed. R.

Civ. P. 41(b). On or before November 5, 2007, the parties shall file a joint statement in response to

the Order to Show Cause. The joint statement shall set forth the status of the activities of the parties

for finalizing the settlement and how much additional time is requested to finalize and file the

dismissal. If a voluntary dismissal is filed as ordered, the Order to Show Cause hearing will be

automatically vacated.
