ORDER REGARDING

MOTIONS FOR SANCTIONS

As noted at the case management conference held on February 4, 2010, plaintiff did not

pay the sanctioned amount of $2494.57 by the February 3 deadline set by the undersigned (Dkt.

Nos. 24, 34). Despite this default, the Court will allow plaintiff to complete payment of this

amount by March 31, 2010. Plaintiff is reminded that he agreed to pay this amount to private

counsel for the non-federal defendants both in his filings with the Court and at the February 4

conference (Dkt Nos. 28, 29). This amount is intended to compensate private defense counsel for

their travels to a December case management conference that plaintiff’s counsel failed to attend. 

Additionally, plaintiff has until NOON ON FEBRUARY 19, 2010, to file an opposition to

private defense counsel’s second request for sanctions relating to a hearing that plaintiff’s counsel

also failed to attend (Dkt. No. 36). If any sanctions are awarded for this second request, they too

must be paid in full by March 31, 2010. By NOON ON MARCH 31, 2010, plaintiff must file a

sworn declaration that any and all monetary sanctions ordered by the undersigned have been paid

in full to defense counsel. 

If plaintiff files timely proof of payment by the March 31 deadline, the case against the

remaining non-federal defendants (as a separate order explains, federal defendant Christian

Hanson is no longer part of this case) will go forward and the accompanying case management

order will govern. If, however, plaintiff does not file a timely declaration that payment has been

completed, the case will, in all likelihood, be dismissed under Rule 41(b) for failure to prosecute

and failure to comply with court orders. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
