ORDER
VERNON S. BRODERICK, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE:
Plaintiff filed this action on October 1, 2020. (Doc. 1). On July 12, 2021, after Defendant failed to appear, I issued an order directing Plaintiff to seek default judgment “in accordance with Rule 4(H) of my Individual Rules and Practices in Civil Cases by no later than July 23, 2021.” (Doc. 6.) Among other things, my Individual Rules require a plaintiff who seeks a default judgment to prepare an order to show cause. See Individual Rules Attachment A. Plaintiff in this case has not done so. Plaintiff also failed to file the appropriate attorney's affidavit with attachments as my rules require.
Accordingly, by October 15, 2021, Plaintiff must file the appropriate papers seeking a default judgment as detailed in my individual rules. Failure to do so likely will result in dismissal for failure to prosecute pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b).
SO ORDERED.
