PROCEEDINGS: ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE WHY ACTION SHOULD NOT BE DISMISSED FOR LACK OF PROSECUTION

On March 8, 2023, the court stayed the action pending the ongoing bankruptcy proceedings in Case No. 23-10259, United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. (Dkt. 112.) On the same day, the court ordered the parties to file a status report every ninety (90) days regarding the status of the bankruptcy proceedings. (Id.) On June 5, 2023, the parties filed their first status report. (Dkt. 113.) As of the date of this Order, more than ninety days have passed since the parties’ last filing, and the parties have not filed any subsequent status reports. (See generally Dkt.)

Accordingly, the court hereby ORDERS the parties to show cause in writing no later than September 22, 2023, why this action should not be dismissed for lack of prosecution. The parties may discharge the Order to Show Cause by filing a joint status report that complies with the court’s March 8, 2023, Order. Failure to adequately comply with the court’s order may result in dismissal. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b); Link v. Wabash R.R. Co.,

739 F.2d 493, 496

(9th Cir. 1984) (“It is within the inherent power of the court to sua sponte dismiss a case for lack of prosecution.”). ____________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________ UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT CENTRAL DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA
