NO. 12-CV-1913

ORDER
AND NOW, this 3rd day of January, 2013, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that this action
against Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Incorporated & MERSCORP ("MERS") is
DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE for plaintiff's failure to make service in accordance with
Rule 4(m) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.1
If, within 10 days of this order, plaintiff files a certificate of service as to defendant
MERS, this dismissal will be vacated.

BY THE COURT:

/s/ J. William Ditter, Jr.
J. WILLIAM DITTER, JR., J.

1

Plaintiff has failed to provide this court with proof of service and MERS has not filed any responsive
pleadings in this matter. Absent proof of service and because more than 120 days have passed since plaintiff filed
his amended complaint, I am dismissing the action against MERS without prejudice.
