JOHN MURPHY, Plaintiff, v. TRIPLE-S MANAGEMENT CORPORATION, ROBERTO GARCIA-ODRIGUEZ, LUIS A. CLAVELL-RODRIGUEZ, CARI M. DOMINGUEZ, STEPHEN L. ONDRA, GAIL B. MARCUS, ROBERTA HERMAN, DAVID H. CHAFEY, JR., MANUEL FIGUEROA-COLLAZO, and ROBERTO SANTA MARIA, Defendants.
ORDER
MARY KAY VYSKOCIL, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE.
A review of court records indicates that the complaint in this action was filed on December 2, 2021, and that no proof of service of the summons and complaint has been filed. Rule 4(m) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure provides:
If a defendant is not served within 90 days after the complaint is filed, the court - on motion or on its own after notice to the plaintiff - must dismiss the action without prejudice against that defendant or order that service be made within a specified time. But if the plaintiff shows good cause for the failure, the court must extend the time for service for an appropriate period.
The plaintiff is directed to serve the summons and complaint on the defendant on or before March 21, 2022. If service has not been made on or before March 21, 2022, and if plaintiff fails to show cause, in writing, why service has not been made, the complaint will be dismissed for failure to prosecute pursuant to Rules 4 and 41 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. 1
SO ORDERED. 2
