(IN CHAMBERS) ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE RE: DISMISSAL OF
CIVIL ACTION

Plaintiff filed this civil action on January 7, 2014. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil
Procedure 4(m), Plaintiff was required to serve the named defendant(s) with the summons and
complaint within 120 days of commencement of the action, or by May 7, 2014. According to
the Court’s review of the docket, no proof of service has been filed in the action since then, and
no defendant has appeared in the action to date. Plaintiff has not requested an extension of the
statutory time period.
The action is subject to dismissal for failure to prosecute. However, in the interests of
justice and in accordance with Rule 4(m), the Court gives Plaintiff notice that it intends to
dismiss the action unless Plaintiff promptly effects service. Additionally, Plaintiff must show
cause why this action should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute. Plaintiff may discharge
this order by filing a statement (not to exceed 3 pages) plus proof of service of process by or
before June 3, 2014 If no timely submission is filed, the matter will be dismissed pursuant to
Rule 41.
