TERRY RAWLINS,

Plaintiff,

v.

REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF 

CALIFORNIA,

Defendant.

Case No. 15-cv-00809-MEJ 

SECOND ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

On February 23, 2015, Plaintiff Terry Rawlins filed this employment discrimination case 

against Defendant Regents of the University of California, at which time the matter was set for a 

Case Management Conference on May 28, 2015. Dkt. Nos. 1-2. However, as of May 22, it was 

not clear whether service of the summons and complaint has been completed in compliance with 

Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4, and no joint or separate case management statement had been

filed by the May 21 deadline. Accordingly, the Court ordered Plaintiff to show cause why the 

case should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute. Dkt. No. 5.

After the Court issued the Order to Show Cause, Defendant appeared and filed a request to 

continue the Case Management Conference by one month, stating it was served on May 1, but the 

parties had not had an opportunity to meet and confer. Dkt. No. 8. The Court granted 

Defendant’s request and continued the Case Management Conference to June 25, 2015, with the 

parties’ joint statement due June 18. Dkt. No. 10. 

On June 18, 2015, Defendant filed a separate Case Management Statement, stating that it 

attempted on multiple occasions to confer with Plaintiff, including two email communications and 

three phone calls, and also prepared and sent Plaintiff a draft Joint Case Management Statement 

for his consideration, but had not heard back from him. Dkt. No. 14. Plaintiff has not filed his
