Regal Entertainment Group, Inc., 14 case number 2:22-cv-00487-JCM-EJY. 15 Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b) provides that “[i]f the plaintiff fails to prosecute or 16 to comply with these rules or a court order, a defendant may move to dismiss the action or any 17 claim against it.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b). This court also has the inherent power to sua sponte 18 19 dismiss a case for want of prosecution or compliance with court orders. Link v. Wabash R. Co., 20
