Pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 78(b), 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 files 9 Proof(s) of service of summons and complaint on the following defendant(s): 9 An answer by the following defendant(s): 3 Plaintiff’s application for entry of default pursuant to Fed.
