Case No.: 2:23-cv-01945-JAD-NJK

v.
WALDO HERNANDEZ, et al.,
Defendants.
On November 22, 2023, Plaintiff initiated this case against Waldo Hernandez, Andrea

13 Hernandez, Lisa Brochu, and Susan Hoy. Docket No. 1. On December 1, 2023, the Clerk of Court
14 issued summons to the above-named parties. Docket No. 8.

Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4 governs the issuance of summons and service of process.

16 Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(m) provides that:
If a defendant is not served within 90 days after the complaint is
filed, the court – on motion or on its own after notice to the plaintiff
– must dismiss the action without prejudice against that defendant
or order that service be made within a specified time. But if the
plaintiff shows good cause for the failure, the Court must extend the
time for service for an appropriate period.
