In the present case, it appears that this time period has not been met. Accordingly, the court, on
its own motion, orders plaintiff to show cause in writing on or before November 30, 2017 why this
action should not be dismissed for lack of prosecution. Pursuant to Rule 78 of the Federal Rules of Civil
Procedure, 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. Failure to respond to
this Order may result in the imposition of sanctions, including but not limited to dismissal of the
complaint.
