UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
CENTRAL DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SOPHIE RODIONOV,

Case No. 2:24-cv-08556-SB-E

Plaintiff,
ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE RE
LACK OF PROSECUTION

v.
ZOETOP BUSINESS CO., LTD. et al.,
Defendants.

Generally, a plaintiff must serve process on defendants within 90 days of the
filing of the complaint. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(m). The complaint in this matter was
filed on October 4, 2024. Dkt. No. 1. More than 90 days have passed since the
complaint in this case was filed, and Plaintiff has not filed a proof of service.
Plaintiff is ordered to show cause, in writing, no later than January 14, 2025, why
this action should not be dismissed for lack of prosecution. No oral argument on
this matter will be heard unless otherwise ordered by the Court. See Fed. R. Civ.
P. 78; Local Rule 7-15.
The Court will consider as an appropriate response to this order to show
cause (OSC) the filing of proof of service showing that Defendants were served
within the 90-day period or a showing of good cause supporting a request to extend
the service period. The filing of a proof of service shall result in the automatic
discharge of this OSC without further order. Failure to timely respond to the OSC
will be construed as consent to dismissal without prejudice of Plaintiff’s claims.

Date: January 7, 2025
