UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
DISTRICT OF MINNESOTA
Bernard Berrian,
Plaintiff,
v.

Civil No. 11-38 (JNE/JSM)
ORDER

Ronald R. Jones, Jane Doe, AKA Clarice
Lankford, Clinton Killian, Rachel Garner,
and Raymond Lankford,
Defendants.
Bernard Berrian first named Rachel Garner and Raymond Lankford as defendants in the
Second Amended Complaint, which was filed on October 19, 2011. More than 120 days have
passed since October 19, and it appears that neither Garner nor Lankford has been served.
Accordingly, the Court orders Berrian to show cause within seven days of the date of this Order
why the action against Garner and Lankford should not be dismissed without prejudice. See Fed.
R. Civ. P. 4(m); Carmona v. Ross, 376 F.3d 829, 830 (8th Cir. 2004) (per curiam).
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated: March 14, 2012
