FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

vs. ORDER

COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL

SECURITY,

Defendant.

 /

Plaintiff, who is proceeding with retained counsel, brings this action under 

42 U.S.C. § 405(g) for judicial review of a final decision of the Commissioner of Social Security. 

A review of the docket reflects that defendant has notified the court regarding consent to proceed

before a Magistrate Judge. Plaintiff, however, has not notified the court regarding consent. 

Pursuant to the court’s scheduling order and Eastern District of California Local Rules, Appendix

A, the time to do so has now expired.

Also pursuant to the court’s scheduling order, plaintiff is required to prosecute

this action by either seeking voluntary remand or filing a dispositive motion within 45 days from

the date of service of the administrative record by defendant. Plaintiff was warned that failure to

comply may result in dismissal of this action for lack of prosecution and failure to comply with

court rules and orders. See Local Rule 110. A review of the docket reflects that the answer and

certified administrative record were served on or about June 30, 2014. To date, plaintiff has not

filed a dispositive motion. 

Plaintiff shall show cause in writing, within 30 days of the date of this order, why

this action should not be dismissed for failure to inform the court regarding consent to Magistrate

Judge jurisdiction and for failure to prosecute this action by either seeking voluntary remand or

filing a dispositive motion within 45 days from the date of service of the administrative record by

defendant, both as required by the court’s scheduling order. The Clerk of the Court is directed to

serve on plaintiff a copy of the court’s form entitled “Consent to Assignment or Request for

Reassignment.” Plaintiff is warned that failure to respond to this order may result in the

dismissal of the action for the reasons discussed above, as well as for failure to prosecute and

comply with court rules and orders. See id.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

DATED: October 8, 2014
