Plaintiff filed a pro se complaint on February 22, 2016. ECF No. 1. On February 

29, 2016, this case was reassigned from Judge Marilyn L. Huff to Judge Gonzalo P. 

Curiel for all further proceedings. ECF No. 3. On March 30, 2016, Plaintiff filed a 

motion to amend, which was rejected for missing proof of service and noncompliance 

with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 15, Civil Local Rule 7.1 or 47.1, and Civil Local 

Rule 5.1. ECF No. 4.

On August 2, 2016, this Court issued an order to show cause and notice of hearing 

scheduled for September 2, 2016 for dismissal for want of prosecution pursuant to 

Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(m). ECF No. 5. Rule 4(m) provides that an action be 

dismissed as to all named defendants not served with the summons and complaint, absent 

a showing of good cause why such service was not made. 

On August 29, 2016, Plaintiff filed a request for a 180-day continuance. ECF No. 

7. Plaintiff acknowledges that while Defendants have not yet been served, Plaintiff is 

attempting to locate Defendants and negotiate settlement with relevant Defendants. Id. 

For good cause shown, the Court will grant Plaintiff’s request for an extension of 

time and will allow him until Friday, October 28, 2016 to serve Defendants. If Plaintiff 

fails to serve Defendants by October 28, 2016, his complaint will be subject to dismissal.

The hearing scheduled for 1:30 pm on Friday, September 2, 2016 in Courtroom 2D 

is vacated.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: August 30, 2016
