Proceedings: IN CHAMBERS - ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE RE: DISMISSAL FOR
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 90 days after the complaint is filed. See Fed. R. Civ.
P. 4(m). Generally, defendant must answer the complaint within 21 days after service (60 days if the
defendant is the United States).
In the present case, it appears that these time periods have not been met. Accordingly, the Court,
on its own motion, orders third party plaintiff to show cause in writing on or before August 8, 2017 why
the third party complaint should not be dismissed as to third party defendants Sophie Weisenberg and
Doris Sebulsky for lack of prosecution.
No oral argument of this matter will be heard unless ordered by the Court. The Order will stand
submitted upon the filing of a written response on or before the date upon which a response by plaintiff(s)
is due. This action will be dismissed as to third party defendants Sophie Weisenberg and Doris
Sebulsky if a written response demonstrating good cause is not filed by the date indicated above.
