Present The Honorable William D. Keller, United States District Judge
Proceedings: (In Chambers) ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE
In light of the Default by Clerk entered April 19, 2022, the Court, on its own motion, ORDERS plaintiff to show cause in writing no later than June 9, 2022 why this action should not be dismissed for lack of prosecution. As an alternative to a written response by plaintiff, the Court will consider the filing of a Request for Entry of Default Judgment (Fed. R. Civ. P. 55(b)) on or before that date.
It is plaintiff's responsibility to respond promptly to all Orders and to prosecute the action diligently. If necessary, plaintiff must also pursue Rule 55 remedies promptly upon the default of any defendant.
No oral argument on this matter will be heard unless ordered by the Court. The Order will stand submitted upon the filing of a responsive pleading or motion on or before the date upon which a response by plaintiff is due.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
