On July 28, 2017, the Court granted Plaintiff’s motion requesting service of his complaint by the
United States Marshal. (Docket No. 9.) The Court’s Order required Plaintiff to provide the United
States Marshal with all information required to effectuate service by no later than August 18, 2017, and
further required Plaintiff to file a declaration establishing his compliance with the Order by August 25,

To date, Plaintiff has not filed a declaration as required by the Court’s July 28 Order.
Accordingly, the court, on its own motion, orders plaintiff to show cause in writing on or before

response. Failure to respond to this Order may result in the imposition of sanctions, including but not
limited to dismissal of the complaint.
