ARTAJAH SMITH, Plaintiff, v. ANDREW SAUL, Defendant.
ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE RE SUGGESTION OF DEATH
Regarding Docket No. 21
SALLIE KIM United States Magistrate Judge
On May 19, 2021, counsel for Plaintiff filed a Suggestion of Death. Counsel informed the Court that Plaintiff died in a car crash on August 13, 2020 and that counsel would investigate the possibility of naming a successor to Plaintiffs claims within ninety days. More than ninety days have passed, and Counsel has not sought to name a successor. Therefore, the Court HEREBY ORDERS Plaintiff to show cause why this case should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b). Plaintiff shall file a written response to this Order to Show Cause (“OSC”) by no later than September 20, 2021. Failure to respond to this OSC will lead to a dismissal of this case without further notice.
IT IS SO ORDERED
