March 26, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 15 PAPERLESS ORDER. On March 25, 2020, I entered an Order to Show Cause directing Plaintiffs to show cause as to why he failed to respond to several pending motions. (DE 12). On March 26, 2020, Plaintiffs responded to the show cause order. (DE #13 ). Plaintiffs assert that they previously filed a Motion for Leave to Amend their Complaint and therefore they believed that the pending motions were moot. (Id.). However, I denied the motion for leave to amend for failure to confer as required by the local rules. (DE 11). Although it is not entirely clear, it appears that Plaintiffs are attempting to improperly renew their motion for leave to amend in the Response (DE #13 ). If Plaintiffs desire to renew the Motion for Leave to Amend, they must separately file such a motion by March 27, 2020. In the event Defendants oppose the motion, they shall file a response by April 1, 2020. Signed by Judge Donald M. Middlebrooks on 3/26/2020. (jdr)

March 25, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 12 PAPERLESS ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE. Plaintiffs' responses to several pending motions (DE #3 , DE #4 , DE #5 ) were originally due by March 12, 2020. On that deadline, Plaintiff moved for and I granted an extension of time to respond. (DE #6 ; DE 8). However, the extended deadline to respond has passed and Plaintiffs failed to file any response. Accordingly, Plaintiffs shall show cause by March 27, 2020, in writing, (1) why the motions should not be granted and (2) why Plaintiffs failed to file timely responses. Plaintiffs' failure to respond to this Order to Show Cause may result in the motions being granted by default pursuant to Local Rule 7.1(c). Alternatively, failure to respond to this Order may result in this action being dismissed for failure to prosecute. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b). Signed by Judge Donald M. Middlebrooks on 3/25/2020.
