UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

RAE DEAN STRAWN,

Plaintiff,

v.

BRUCE SOKOLOFF, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 1:22-cv-01245-ADA-EPG

ORDER DISCHARGING ORDER TO SHOW 

CAUSE

(ECF No. 38)

Plaintiff alleges civil rights and tort claims in this case. (ECF No. 26). On November 16, 

2023, this Court issued an order requiring defense counsel to show cause why sanctions should 

not issue for the failure of any of Defendants’ attorneys to attend the November 13, 2023 middiscovery conference as required by the Court’s orders. (ECF Nos. 32, 36, 38).

Attorney Graham Scott has now filed a declaration in response to the order to show cause. 

(ECF No. 39). Attorney Scott states that he mistakenly had the hearing set for 11 a.m. (rather than 

10 a.m.) due to an apparent typo in calendaring the matter and apologizes for not appearing.

Upon review, IT IS ORDERED as follows:

1. The Court discharges its November 13, 2023 order to show cause. (ECF No. 38).

2. The Court will not issue sanctions but reminds the parties of the importance of ensuring 

they correctly calendar proceedings before the Court.
