HANOVER AMERICAN INSURANCE COMPANY et al. Plaintiffs, v. FRANCINI INC., Defendant.
ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE RE: DISMISSAL FOR LACK OF PROSECUTION
STANLEY BLUMENFELD, JR. UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
Plaintiffs filed their complaint against Defendant Francini Inc. on November 29, 2023. Dkt. No. 1. On December 13, 2023, Plaintiff effectuated personal service on Defendant. See Dkt. No. 11. Defendant failed to timely respond, and Plaintiffs have not sought entry of default. Plaintiffs are ordered to show cause, in writing, no later than January 12, 2024, why their claims should not be dismissed for lack of prosecution. No oral argument on this matter will be heard unless otherwise ordered by the Court. See Fed.R.Civ.P. 78; Local Rule 7-15.
The Court will consider as an appropriate response to this order to show cause (OSC) the filing, on or before January 12, 2024, of an application for entry of default under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 55(a). The filing of such an application shall result in the automatic discharge of this OSC without further order. Failure to timely respond to the OSC will be deemed consent to the dismissal without prejudice of Plaintiffs' claims.
