SAN JOSE DIVISION

Juan Zavala, et al.,

Plaintiffs,

 v.

Rane’s Gardening, et al.,

Defendants. /

NO. C 09-06056 JW 

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE RE:

DISMISSAL FOR FAILURE TO

PROSECUTE; VACATING CASE

MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE

This case is scheduled for a Case Management Conference on May 10, 2010. On May 3,

2010, Defendants filed a Case Management Conference Statement. (hereafter, “Statement,” Docket

Item No. 7.) To date, Plaintiffs have not filed a Case Management Conference Statement or

otherwise communicated with the Court. Defendants’ counsel declared that he has twice attempted

to meet and confer with Plaintiffs’ counsel with regard to this case, but Plaintiffs’ counsel has so far

failed to respond. (Declaration Regarding Efforts to Meet and Confer, hereafter, “Declaration,”

Docket Item No. 7.) Specifically, Defendants’ counsel declared that he phoned Plaintiffs’ counsel

on or about April 19, 2010 in an attempt to discuss the Case Management Conference Statement, but

Plaintiffs’ counsel to date has not returned his call. (Id. ¶ 3.) Finally, Defendants have expressed

their willingness to consent to a magistrate judge for all purposes, while Plaintiffs have yet to

address the issue. (See Statement at 2.) 

In light of Plaintiffs’ failure to comply with the Court’s Order regarding submission of a

Joint Case Management Statement, and Defendants’ counsel’s representations regarding Plaintiffs’
