UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

Plaintiff Avery Hypolite is appearing pro se and in forma pauperis in this civil rights action 

pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. 

This action is proceeding against Defendant Zamora for use of excessive force and against 

Defendant Schultz for failure to intervene in violation of the Eighth Amendment.

On September 16, 2015, the United States marshal returned the USM-285 form unexecuted as 

to Defendant Schultz. (ECF No. 23.) On September 18, 2015, the Court issued an order for Plaintiff 

to show cause within thirty days as to why Defendant N. Schultz should not be dismissed from the 

action pursuant to Rule 4(m) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. (ECF No. 24.) More than thirty 

days have passed and Plaintiff has not responded to the Court’s September 18, 2015, order.
