(IN CHAMBERS) ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE RE DISMISSAL FOR LACK
OF PROSECUTION
The Court, on its own motion, hereby ORDERS plaintiff’s counsel, to show cause in writing no
later than July 21, 2015, why this action should not be dismissed for lack of prosecution. As an
alternative to a written response by plaintiff, the Court will consider the filing of one of the following, as
an appropriate response to this OSC, on or before the above date:
X
Answer by defendant(s) OR Plaintiff's request for entry of default
X
Notice of Voluntary Dismissal (FRCivP 41)
Absent a showing of good cause, an action shall be dismissed if the summons and complaint have
not been served upon all defendants within 120 days after the filing of the complaint. Fed. R. Civ. P. 4
(m). The Court may dismiss the action prior to the expiration of such time, however, if plaintiffs have
not diligently prosecuted the action.
It is plaintiff's responsibility to respond promptly to all Orders and to prosecute the action
diligently, including filing proofs of service and stipulations extending time to respond. If necessary,
plaintiffs must also pursue Rule 55 remedies promptly upon the default of any defendant. All
stipulations affecting the progress of the case must be approved by the Court. Local Rule 8.3.
No oral argument of this matter will be heard unless ordered by the Court. The Order will stand
submitted upon the filing of a responsive pleading or motion on or before the date upon which a response
by plaintiffs is due.
