PROCEEDINGS (IN CHAMBERS): ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE WHY THIS CASE
SHOULD NOT BE DISMISSED FOR LACK OF
PROSECUTION

The file in this case lacks the papers that would show it is being timely prosecuted, as
reflected below. Accordingly, the Court, on its own motion, hereby orders plaintiff (s) to show
cause in writing no later than October 25, 2017 why this action should not be dismissed as to all
remaining defendants for lack of prosecution.
It is the responsibility of plaintiff 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, plaintiff(s) must also pursue Rule 55 remedies promptly upon default of any defendant.
All stipulations affecting the progress of the case must be approved by the Court, Local Rule 7-1.

As an alternative to a written response by plaintiff(s), the Court will accept one of the
following as an appropriate response to this OSC if it is filed on or before the above date, as
evidence that the matter is being prosecuted diligently:



Answer to Complaint or Request for Entry of Default; or
Notice of Voluntary Dismissal (F.R.Civ.P .41)

Absent showing of good cause, an action shall be dismissed if the summons and
complaint have not been served upon all defendants within 90 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 this action.
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 plaintiff(s) is due.
