NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SAN JOSE DIVISION

TONETTA WADE,

Plaintiff,

v.

EXPERIAN INFORMATION SOLUTIONS, 

INC., et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 5:15-cv-03862-EJD 

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

On August 4, 2015, Plaintiff Tonetta Wade (“Plaintiff”) filed the Complaint underlying 

this action. Having reviewed the docket, however, the court is unable to locate proofs of service 

or waivers of service for Defendants Verizon Communications, Inc., HSBC Holdings PLC, Kohl’s 

Corporation, Escallate, LLC, or Bryant, Inc. (“Defendants”), and Defendants have not appeared in 

this action.

The then-effective version of Rule 4(m) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure provided 

in pertinent part:

If service of the summons and complaint is not made upon a 

defendant within 120 days after the filing of the complaint, the 

court, upon motion or on its own initiative after notice to the 

plaintiff, shall dismiss the action without prejudice as to that 

defendant or direct that service be effected within a specified time; 

provided that if the plaintiff shows good cause for the failure, the 

court shall extend the time for service for an appropriate period.

The 120-day period for service provided by Rule 4(m) expired on December 2, 2015. 

Accordingly, the court issues the instant Order to Show Cause (“OSC”) requiring that Plaintiff, no

later than December 28, 2015, either: (1) file documents to show proof of service of the Summons 

and Complaint on Defendants; or (2) explain in writing why service has not been accomplished.
