Case No.: 2:15-cv-02081-JAD-CWH
v.
United Guaranty Residential Insurance Company of
North Carolina, et al.,
Order Dismissing Claims
and Closing Case
[ECF No. 25]
Defendants

10
On July 7, 2017, the court granted Fannie Mae and Nationstar Mortgage’s unopposed motion
11
for summary judgment and gave the plaintiff 20 days to advise the court how it planned to proceed
12
against non-answering defendant United Guaranty Residential Insurance Company of North
13
Carolina. The court warned plaintiff that if it took no action by that deadline, the claims against
14
United would be dismissed without prejudice and this case would be closed. The 20-day deadline
15
passed with no notice that plaintiff intends to pursue its claims against United, and the record does
16
not reflect that United has been served with this action, which commenced nearly two years ago.
17
Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(m) states that “If a defendant is not served within 90 days after the
18
complaint is filed, the court—on motion or on its own after notice to the plaintiff—must dismiss the
19
action without prejudice against that defendant or order that service be made within a specified
20
time.” Accordingly,
21
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Nationstar Mortgage and Fannie Mae’s Motion to Close
22
Case [ECF No. 25] is GRANTED; the claims against United Guaranty Residential Insurance
23
Company of North Carolina are DISMISSED without prejudice. The Clerk of Court is directed
24
to CLOSE THIS CASE.
