Plaintiff, who is proceeding with retained counsel, brings this action under

42 U.S.C. § 405(g) for judicial review of a final decision of the Commissioner of Social Security.

On October 8, 2014, the court granted plaintiff’s motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis.

That order required plaintiff to submit to the United States Marshal, within 15 days of the date of

22

service of the order, a completed summons and copies of the complaint, and file a statement with

23

the court that said documents have been submitted. Plaintiff was warned that failure to comply

24

may result in dismissal of this action for lack of prosecution and failure to comply with court

25

rules and orders. See Local Rule 110. More than 15 days have elapsed and plaintiff has not

26

complied.

Plaintiff shall show cause, in writing, within 30 days of the date of this order, why

this action should not be dismissed for failure to submit service documents to the United States

the action for the reasons outlined above, as well as for failure to prosecute and comply with

court rules and orders. See id.
