DIANE ANANIAN, et al.,

Plaintiffs,

v.

SABADELL UNITED BANK, N.A.,

Defendant.

Case No. 16-cv-01535-MEJ 

ORDER CONTINUING CASE 

MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE AND 

ORDERING PARTIES TO FILE JOINT 

CASE MANAGEMENT STATEMENT

On May 11, 2016, the Court ordered the parties to file a Joint Case Management Statement

by June 23, 2016. Dkt. No. 9. As of the date of this Order, only Plaintiffs Diane and David 

Ananian (“Plaintiffs”) have filed a Case Management Statement, noting that Defendant Sabadell 

United Bank, N.A. (“Defendant”) has “wholly failed to participate in this action” since it removed 

the case from the Superior Court of Contra Costa County. Dkt. No. 13 at 6; see also Dkt. No. 1 

(Not. of Removal). Additionally, it appears Defendant also failed to comply with this Court’s 

April 5, 2016 Order referring the parties to the Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) Unit for 

Assessment, among other things. Dkt. No. 5 (Order); Dkt. No. 10 (ADR Clerk’s Notice of NonCompliance with Court Order). Although one of Defendant’s attorneys, Keenan Edward 

McClenahan, is not signed-up to receive electronic filings in this case, another one of Defendant’s 

attorneys, Keefe E. Roberts, is signed-up to receive electronic filings. See, e.g., Dkt. No. 7. Mr. 

Roberts signed Defendant’s Notice of Removal. Not. at 4.

Given the foregoing circumstances, the Court hereby CONTINUES the Case Management 

Conference currently scheduled for June 30, 2016 to July 14, 2016 at 10:00 a.m. in Courtroom B. 

No later than seven calendar days before the Case Management Conference, the parties are 

ORDERED to file a Joint Case Management Statement containing the information in the 

Case 3:16-cv-01535-MEJ Document 17 Filed 06/24/16 Page 1 of 2
