ORDER
Pro se plaintiff Minnie Simmons filed a Complaint alleging that her
former employer, defendant Oaks Senior Living, LLC, discriminated
against her on the basis of her age and retaliated against her. See
generally doc. 1. The District Judge denied her request to proceed in
forma pauperis, doc. 7, and she paid the required filing fee, see docket
entry dated January 13, 2023. Although Simmons submitted summonses
when she filed her Complaint, see doc. 3, there is no indication that the
Clerk issued the summonses, see generally docket. Since Simmons has
now paid the filing fee, the Clerk is DIRECTED to issue the summonses
pursuant to his standard procedure, upon request from Simmons. See
Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(b). Since Simmons is not proceeding in forma pauperis,

Case 4:22-cv-00274-RSB-CLR Document 8 Filed 01/19/23 Page 2 of 2

she is responsible for serving the defendant. Compare Fed. R. Civ. P.
4(c)(1), with Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(c)(3); see also Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(m).
