THIRD ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

On September 18, 2015, Defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss, with a noticed hearing date

decline magistrate judge jurisdiction by October 2, yet Plaintiffs failed to respond. Accordingly, 

the Court hereby VACATES the motion hearing and ORDERS Plaintiffs Lucille Winston and 

Lumari Newsome to show cause why this case should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute 

and failure to comply with court deadlines. Plaintiffs shall file a declaration by October 21, 2015. 

If a responsive declaration is filed, the Court shall either issue an order based on the declaration or 

conduct a hearing on November 5, 2015 at 10:00 a.m. in Courtroom B, 15th Floor, 450 Golden 

Gate Avenue, San Francisco, California. Notice is hereby given to Plaintiffs that the Court may 

dismiss this case without a hearing if no responsive declaration is filed. Thus, it is imperative that 

the Court receive a written response by the deadline above.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
