IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

WESTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

TEXARKANA DIVISION

ANTOINETTE LEE PLAINTIFF

v. Civil No. 4:23-cv-04029 

SUSTAINABLE FORESTS, LLC. AND

BLUE SKY TIMBER PROPRTIES, LLC DEFENDANTS

ORDER

Before the Court is Defendant Sustainable Forests’ Motion to Quash Service of Second 

Amended Complaint. ECF No. 29. Plaintiff has not responded to the Motion. Pursuant to the 

provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) and (3) (2009), the Honorable Susan O. Hickey referred this 

Motion to this Court. 

1. Background

On October 10, 2023, Plaintiff filed a Supplement to Complaint and a Second Amended 

Complaint. ECF Nos. 21 and 22. Prior to the filing of this pleading, on September 6, 2023, 

Plaintiff had been directed to not to file any additional pleadings in this matter until service was 

completed and Defendants had responded to the Amended Complaint. ECF No. 19. Based upon 

Plaintiff’s failure to follow this directive, the Court, by Order dated October 18, 2023, directed the 

Clerk of this Court to strike Plaintiff’s Supplement to Complaint and Second Amended Complaint. 

ECF No. 23. 

According to Defendant’s Motion, Plaintiff is purported to have served her Second 

Amended Complaint on Sustainable Forests on October 18, 2023. With this Motion, Defendant 

Sustainable Forests seeks to quash service of Plaintiff’s Second Amended Complaint because the 

Second Amended Complaint had been previously stricken and may not serve the basis for proper 

service.
