MEMORANDUM*


2
W. Reginald Rose, Jr. and Laura J. Rose appeal pro se the district court's dismissal of their action under 18 U.S.C. § 1961 (the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act ("RICO")) and 42 U.S.C. § 1983 against several of the Roses' former lawyers, state court judges, 20th Century Insurance Company ("20th Century") and Dr. John Hochman.  We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we reverse.


3
Because the district court's January 8, 1997 and April 17, 1997 orders to show cause were not directed specifically to the Roses, we reverse the dismissal for lack of prosecution on the grounds that the Roses did not receive proper notice.1


4
We deny 20th Century's request for sanctions.


5
REVERSED.
