UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

LYDIA BERTON, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY, 

Defendant. 

Case No. 1:15-cv-0048-BAM 

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE WHY THIS 

ACTION SHOULD NOT BE DISMISSED 

FOR PLAINTIFF’S FAILURE TO 

PROSECUTE 

RESPONSE DUE: July 23, 2015 

 On January 9, 2015, Plaintiff Lydia Berton (“Plaintiff”) filed the complaint in this action. 

(ECF No. 1.) That same day, the Court issued the scheduling order in this action. (ECF No. 3.) 

The scheduling order ordered Plaintiff to serve the summons and complaint in this action within 

twenty days of filing the complaint and to file a return of service with the Court. To date, no 

return of service has been filed with the Court and there is no indication that Plaintiff has served 

the summons or complaint. No activity has occurred on the Court’s docket for this action since 

Plaintiff consented to magistrate jurisdiction on January 12, 2015. (ECF No. 4.) 

 Accordingly, Plaintiff is HEREBY ORDERED to SHOW CAUSE in writing why this 

action should not be dismissed for Plaintiff’s failure to comply with the Court’s scheduling order 

and Plaintiff’s failure to prosecute this action.
