UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff,

v.

ROBERT LEE SWANSON,

Defendant.

Case No. 09-cr-00475-SI-1 

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

Re: Dkt. Nos. 22, 30

On May 20, 2016, defendant filed a motion to vacate his sentence pursuant to 28 U.S.C.

§ 2255. On May 24, 2016, the Court issued an order directing the government to respond within 

21 days to defendant’s motion by stating whether the government would oppose the motion, and if 

so to set forth an agreed-upon briefing schedule. The government missed this deadline. 

On July 6, 2016, the parties filed a stipulation proposing a new briefing schedule under 

which the government’s opposition would be due August 3, 2016. The Court approved the 

stipulation and adopted the proposed briefing schedule. The government neither filed an 

opposition on August 3, 2016 nor sought an extension of that deadline. On September 19, 2016, 

defendant filed a motion for summary judgment regarding the government’s failure to file a 

response to the section 2255 motion

The government is hereby ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE in writing no later than

September 26, 2016, why the pending section 2255 motion should not be granted. The 

government shall also explain why it has repeatedly failed to meet the deadlines in this case. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
