17 17 order Order To Show Cause Mon 07/15 9:27 AM
District Judge Julia E. Kobick: ELECTRONIC ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE entered. The deadline for filing an opposition to the defendants' motions to dismiss was July 12, 2024, fourteen days after those motions were served. See Local Rule 7.1.(b)(2). Plaintiff Jeong Hoon Kim has not filed an opposition to the motion. Granting a motion to dismiss is an inappropriate sanction for a failure to respond. Pomerleau v. W. Springfield Pub. Sch. , 362 F.3d 143, 145 (1st Cir. 2004). But claims may be dismissed for failure to prosecute following an order to show cause. Diaz-Santos v. Dep't of Educ. of Com. of Puerto Rico , 108 F. App'x 638, 640-41 (1st Cir. 2004). Accordingly, Mr. Kim has until July 29, 2024 to show cause why this case should not be dismissed and file his opposition to the pending motion to dismiss. Failure to do so may result in immediate dismissal of this action. (Currie, Haley)
