(In Chambers) Order to Show Cause re Dismissal re Lack of
Prosecution
Absent a showing of good cause, an action must be dismissed without prejudice
if the summons and complaint are not served on a defendant within 120 days after the
complaint is filed. Fed.R.Civ.Proc. 4(m). Generally, defendants must answer the
complaint within 20 days after service (60 days if the defendant is the United States).
Fed.R.Civ.Proc. 12(a)(1).
In the present case, it appears that one or more of these time periods has not been
met. Accordingly, the court, on its own motion, orders plaintiff(s) to show cause in
in writing on or before April 8, 2013 why this action should not be dismissed
for lack of prosecution. Pursuant to Rule 78 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure,
the court finds that this matter is appropriate for submission without oral argument. The
Order To Show Cause will stand submitted upon the filing of plaintiff's response.
If plaintiff/defendant files:
Proof(s) of service of summons and complaint on the following defendant(s):
ALL DEFENDANTS or
An answer by the following defendant(s):
