ORDER
This matter comes before the court on the motions of Sharné Louise Niblock
(“Plaintiff”) for entry of default judgment against Angela Nazzery-Scott (“Scott”),
Shanett Smith (“Smith”), and Barbretta Cook (“Cook”) (“Defendants”) [ECF Nos. 35,
36]. Defendants argue the motions should be denied for Plaintiff’s failure to properly
serve the summons and complaint. In light of the procedural history of this case as
outlined in Defendants’ response to the motions, the court denies Plaintiff’s motions and
directs Defendants to file their answers/responsive pleadings by February 22, 1017.
Plaintiff also filed a motion for substitution of Maya Angelou Simone (“Simone”)
[ECF No. 33]. The court denies Plaintiff’s motion to substitute at this time for failure to
state any claims against Simone.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
