(HC) Vang v. Arias

Opinion

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 10 11 JIMMY YOUNG VANG, Case No. 2:24-cv-1644-JDP (P) 12 Petitioner, 13 v. ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE 15 Respondent. 16 17 18 On March 3, 2025, the court notified petitioner that his petition failed to state a claim. 19 ECF No. 7. The court granted petitioner thirty days to file an amended petition. Id. To date, 20 petitioner has not done so. 21 To manage its docket effectively, the court imposes deadlines and requires litigants to 22 meet those deadlines. The court may dismiss a case based on petitioner’s failure to prosecute or 23 failure to comply with its orders or local rules. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 41; Hells Canyon Pres. 24 Council v. U.S. Forest Serv., 403 F.3d 683, 689 (9th Cir. 2005) (“[T]he consensus among our 25 sister circuits, with which we agree, is that courts may dismiss under Rule 41(b) sua sponte, at 26 least under certain circumstances.”). Involuntary dismissal is a harsh penalty, but the court has a 27 duty to administer justice expeditiously and avoid needless burden for the parties. See 28 1 | Pagtalunan v. Galaza, 291 F.3d 639, 642 (9th Cir. 2002); Fed. R. Civ. P. 1. 2 Petitioner will be given a final opportunity to explain why the court should not dismiss his 3 | case for failure to file an amended petition. Petitioner’s failure to respond to this order will 4 | constitute a failure to comply with a court order and will result in dismissal of this case. 5 | Accordingly, petitioner must show cause within twenty-one days of the date of entry of this order 6 | why the court should not dismiss his case for failure to state a claim, failure to prosecute, and 7 | failure to comply with a court order. Should petitioner wish to continue with this lawsuit, he shall 8 | also file, within twenty-one days, an amended petition for writ of habeas corpus. 9 ( ie - Dated: _ April 9, 2025 q-—— 12 JEREMY D.
