motion or on its own after notice to the plaintiff–must dismiss the action without
prejudice against that defendant or order that service be made within a specified time.”
Benson is given up to, and including, May 31, 2011, to serve defendant Michael J. Astrue
(“Astrue”) with a summons and copy of the complaint and to make that fact known by
filing the appropriate document. In the event she fails to serve Astrue with a summons
and copy of the complaint, and to make that fact known by filing the appropriate
document, the Court will dismiss the complaint.
IT IS SO ORDERED this ____9____ day of May, 2011.
