ORDER
VERNON S. BRODERICK, United States District Judge:
I am in receipt of Plaintiff’s motion for default judgment and supporting papers. (Doc.
24.) Plaintiff filed this action on September 16, 2021, (Doc. 1), and filed an affidavit of service
on November 11, 2021, (Doc. 13). The deadline for Defendant Marcos Ismael Mena Najera to
respond to Plaintiff’s complaint was October 28, 2021. (See Doc. 13.) On December 27, 2021, I
directed Plaintiff that if they intended to seek a default judgment against Defendant Marcos
Ismael Mena Najera, they must do so in accordance with Rule 4(H) of my Individual Rules and
Practices in Civil Cases by no later than January 3, 2022, or risk dismissal of the case for failure
to prosecute pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b). (Doc. 19.) On January 3, 2022,
Plaintiff obtained a certificate of default against Defendant Marcos Ismael Mena Najera and filed
a motion for default judgment with the supporting papers. (Docs. 23–24.) However, Plaintiff
did not file an order to show cause pursuant to Rule 4(H) of my Individual Rules and Practices in
Civil Cases and Attachment A. Accordingly, if Plaintiff still intends to seek default judgment
against Defendant Marcos Ismael Mena Najera, they are directed to file an order to show cause
in accordance with Rule 4(H) of my Individual Rules and Practices in Civil Cases by no later
than January 18, 2022. If Plaintiff fails to do so or otherwise demonstrate that they intend to

prosecute this litigation against Defendant, I may dismiss those claims for failure to prosecute
pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b).
SO ORDERED.
