Plaintiff,

v.

AMERICAN AIRLINES,

Defendant.

_____________________________________/

Case No. 1:15-cv-01172-SKO

ORDER THAT PLAINTIFF FILE A 

WRITTEN STATEMENT SHOWING 

CAUSE WHY CASE SHOULD NOT BE 

DISMISSED OR THAT PLAINTIFF FILE 

AN AMENDED COMPLAINT

(Doc. 27)

On June 12, 2015, Plaintiff John A. Schauf (“Plaintiff”) filed a first amended complaint 

with the Stanislaus County Superior Court. (Doc. 1.) On July 28, 2015, Defendant American 

Airlines, Inc., erroneously named as “American Airlines” (“Defendant”) timely removed the 

action to federal court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1332. (Doc. 1.) On September 24, 2015, the Court 

denied Defendant’s motion to dismiss the first amended complaint for insufficient service without 

prejudice and ordered Plaintiff to file proof of service of the summons and amended complaint 

upon Defendant. (Doc. 18.) 

Defendant having been served pursuant to the Court’s order, Defendant again moved for 

dismissal for failure to state a claim upon which relief may be granted. (Doc. 23.) On January 11, 

2016, the Court granted Defendant’s motion to dismiss with leave to amend and ordered Plaintiff 

to file a second amended complaint within sixty (60) days. (Doc. 25.) No amended complaint has 

been filed. (See Docket.) 

Therefore, Plaintiff is ordered to show cause, if any, why the action should not be 

dismissed for failure to prosecute and for failure to comply with the Court’s January 11, 2016,
