Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(m), an action shall be dismissed as

against any defendant who is not served within 120 days after the complaint is filed. This action

was deemed appropriate for service on March 28, 2005, and, to date, defendants Grant, Wiley,

and “CDC Deputy Director” have not been served. Plaintiff will be required to show good cause

why such defendants should not be dismissed. Plaintiff is warned that failure to comply with this

order may result in dismissal of the entire action for lack of prosecution and failure to comply

with court rules and orders. See Local Rule 11-110.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that plaintiff shall show cause, in

writing, within 20 days of the date of service of this order why defendants Grant, Wiley, and

“CDC Deputy Director” should not be dismissed pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure

4(m). 

DATED: February 6, 2006.
