Sevastianov v. Jaddou et al
Filing 19
ORDER REGARDING GENERAL PRETRIAL MANAGEMENT: Plaintiff filed his complaint on February 9, 2024, against defendants Ur Jaddou, Loren Miller, and Officer 0348. (Dkt. 1.) Summonses were issued as to all three defendants on April 25, 2024 (Dkt. 10), making plaintiff's deadline to serve the summonses (and the complaint) July 24, 2024. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(m). On July 25, 2024 (plaintiff not yet having served any defendant), the Court (i) directed the Clerk of Court to re-issue the summon ses, and (ii) extended plaintiff's time to serve each defendant with process until 30 days after the re-issuance of the summonses. (Dkt. 13.) On August 6, 2024, the Clerk re-issued a summons as to all three defendants. (Dkt. 14.) On August 19 and 20, 2024, plaintiff filed proofs of service showing that he served the original summonses (dated April 25, 2024) by mail, addressed to the Office of the Chief Counsel of the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (Dkts. 16-18.) Ho wever, plaintiff did not provide proof of service of the complaint on any defendant, by any method. Proper service generally requires delivery of the summons and "a copy of the complaint." Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(c)(1). Plaintiff may have until September 27, 2024, to serve the re-issued summons and a copy of the complaint on each defendant, and to file proof of such service on the docket. SO ORDERED. ( Service due by 9/27/2024.) (Signed by Magistrate Judge Barbara C. Moses on 8/30/2024) (vfr)
