ORDER DISMISSING ACTION
WITHOUT PREJUDICE
FOR FAILURE TO OBTAIN SERVICE
This matter comes now before the court for its review upon plaintiff’s apparent failure to
comply with the Local Civil Rules of this district pertaining to obligation to report financial
disclosures and for failure to obtain service upon the defendants within one hundred twenty (120)
days after filing of the complaint on December 9, 2011. On April 16, 2012, plaintiff was noticed
by the clerk of the failure to make service and instructed to comply within fourteen days of receipt
of the notice. Further, the clerk issued notices to the plaintiff on December 13, 2011, December 27,
2011 and finally on April 16, 2012 notifying plaintiff of deficiency where no financial disclosure
statement had been filed in this matter in accordance with Fed. R. Civ. P. 7.1 and Local Civil Rule
7.3.
As of this date, there has been no effort, as reflected on the record, by plaintiff to comply
with the clerk’s notices. No good cause having been demonstrated as to why plaintiff has failed to
comply with this court’s directives or to evidence why service was not made within the appropriate
period, this action is DISMISSED without prejudice.
SO ORDERED this the 4th day of June, 2012.
