What if a plaintiff fails to comply with a court-ordered deadline to amend their liability?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Stewart v. Christianson, Case No. 1:18-cv-00058-JDP (E.D. Cal. 2018):
Because plaintiff did not comply with a court-ordered deadline, we may also dismiss the case for failure to comply with a court order and failure to prosecute. See Edwards v. Marin Park, Inc., 356 F.3d 1058, 1065 (9th Cir. 2004) (when a plaintiff is given an opportunity to amend and does nothing, a case "is properly met with the sanction of a Rule 41(b) dismissal.").
