Plaintiff,

No. 17-10818

v.

District Judge nancy G. Edmunds
Magistrate Judge R. Steven Whalen

MICHIGAN DEPT. OF CORRECTIONS,
ET AL.,
Defendants.

ORDER
On January 11, 2019, I ordered the United States Marshal to serve copies of
Plaintiff’s complaint and summonses to Defendants Henderson, Husian, and Farris by
certified mail, return receipt requested [Doc. #25]. However, because of the government
shut-down at the time, U.S. Marshal’s personnel responsible for service in IFP cases were
furloughed. I therefore stayed the order “until relevant funding is restored and the
appropriate Marshal’s personnel are returned to active status.” That has now happened.
Accordingly, the stay of my order for service is VACATED, and the U.S. Marshal
will attempt service on the Defendants as set forth in my January 11, 2019 order [Doc.
#25].

Pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 4(m), the time for service of process is extended 60 days
from the date of this Order.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
