Order to Show Cause Re: Dismissal For Lack Of Prosecution
Generally, defendants must answer the complaint within 21 days after service (60 days if the
defendant is the United States). Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(a)(1).
In the present case, it appears that this time period has not been met as to defendant Little Lake
City School District. Accordingly, the Court, on its own motion, orders plaintiff to show cause in
writing on or before July 5, 2016 why defendant Little Lake City School District 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 this defendant.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
