The below time period(s) has not been met. Accordingly, the Court, on its own motion, orders Plaintiff(s) to show cause, in writing, on or before January 11, 2023,why this action should not be dismissed for lack of prosecution. This matter will stand submitted upon the filing of Plaintiff(s) response. See Fed.R.Civ.P. 78. Failure to respond will be deemed consent to the dismissal of the action.
