Case No. 2:17-cv-01884-JCM-GWF
ORDER

This matter is before the Court on Plaintiff’s Motion to Extend Time to Serve Summons and
Complaint (ECF No. 6), filed on October 6, 2017.
Pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 6(b) and LR 6, extensions of time may be granted for good cause

16

shown. Further, Rule 4(m) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure – which governs the time limit

17

of service – allows the court to grant an extension of time for service if the plaintiff can show good

18

cause for the failure to timely serve a defendant. Here, the Court finds that Plaintiff has provided

19

sufficient good cause to warrant the requested ninety (90) day extension. Accordingly,

20

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiff’s Motion to Extend Time to Serve Summons and

21

Complaint (ECF No. 6) is granted. Plaintiff shall have until Monday, January 8, 2018 to

22

effectuate service on Defendant.
