UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

RICHARD A. ENSMINGER, 

Appellant, 

No. 2:15-cv-02550-JAM 

ORDER 

In re RICHARD A. ENSMINGER, 

Debtor 

On February 11, 2016, the Clerk of the Bankruptcy Court notified this court that 

the record on appeal was incomplete in that it did not include a designation of record, statement 

of issues, reporter’s transcript or notice regarding the transcript. ECF No. 10. That notice was 

served on the debtor, Richard Ensminger, who is proceeding without representation in this appeal. 

An appellant’s failure to take the necessary steps to prosecute the appeal may be 

grounds for sanctions, up to and including dismissal of the appeal. Greco v. Stubenberg, 859 F.2d 

1401, 1404 (9th Cir. 1988). As appellant has taken no steps to complete the record necessary to 

his appeal, he is directed to show cause in writing on or before April 15, 2016, why the appeal 

should not be dismissed. 

IT IS SO ORDERED. 

DATED: March 31, 2016
