UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

After verifying that no defendant had answered this action, the Court ordered the plaintiff to 

show cause why sanctions should not be imposed for the failure to prosecute the action. (Doc. 4) in 

the same order, the Court ordered the defendants to show cause why sanctions should not be imposed 

for their failure to respond to the complaint or to respond to the complaint. Id. 

Plaintiff explained that there had been discussions with counsel about remanding the matter to 

state court which was why the plaintiff had not sought default. (Doc. 5) In addition, all of the 

defendants, except Ms. Hooker, have now answered. (Doc. 9) As to Ms. Hooker, an attorney she 

consulted notified the Court that she has declared bankruptcy and would not be responding to the 

complaint. (Doc. 8) The Court has confirmed that Ms. Hooker has, indeed, filed a bankruptcy action.1

 

1 The court may take notice of facts that are capable of accurate and ready determination by resort to sources whose 

accuracy cannot reasonably be questioned. Fed. R. Evid. 201(b); United States v. Bernal-Obeso, 989 F.2d 331, 333 (9th

Cir. 1993). The record of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of California is a source whose 

accuracy cannot reasonably be questioned. Therefore, the Court takes judicial notice of the fact of Ms. Hooker’s filing of 

the bankruptcy action. Mullis v. United States Bank. Ct., 828 F.2d 1385, 1388 n.9 (9th Cir. 1987); Valerio v. Boise 

Cascade Corp., 80 F.R.D. 626, 635 n. 1 (N.D.Cal.1978), aff'd, 645 F.2d 699 (9th Cir.); see also Colonial Penn Ins. Co. v. 

Coil, 887 F.2d 1236, 1239 (4th Cir. 1989); Rodic v. Thistledown Racing Club, Inc., 615 F.2d 736, 738 (6th. Cir. 1980).
