ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE RE: DISMISSAL FOR LACK OF PROSECUTION

Plaintiff(s) are ORDERED to show cause why this case should not be dismissed,
for lack of prosecution. Link v. Wabash R. Co., 370 U.S. 626 (1962) (court has inherent
power to dismiss for lack of prosecution on its own motion). In this matter:
□
Plaintiff(s) have failed to file a proof of service within 120 days of the filing
of the Complaint. Plaintiff(s) can satisfy this order by showing that service was
effectuated within the 120 day deadline or by showing good cause for the failure to do so.
Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(m).
O
Defendant(s) did not answer the complaint, yet Plaintiff(s) have failed to
request entry of default, pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 55(a). Plaintiff(s) can satisfy this
order by seeking entry of default or by dismissing the complaint.
□
Plaintiff(s) obtained entry of default, pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 55(a), but
Plaintiff(s) have not sought default judgment, pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 55(b).
Plaintiff(s) can satisfy this order by seeking default judgment or by notifying the Court
that default judgment will not be sought, at which point the clerk will close this matter.
□
