(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 25, 2017, 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 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 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 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.
Initials of Deputy Clerk
