ANNA KIHAGI, et al.,

Plaintiffs,

v.

CITY OF SAN FRANCISCO, 

CALIFORNIA, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 15-cv-01168-KAW 

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

Re: Dkt. No. 1

On March 12, 2015, Plaintiffs Anna Kihagi, Xelan Prop 1, LLC, Renka Prop, LLC, and 

Zoriall LLC commenced the above-captioned case against the City of San Francisco and city 

employees Victoria L. Weatherford and Michael Weiss. Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on 

May 18, 2015. In the amended complaint, the City and four city employees, Victoria L. 

Weatherford, Michael Weiss, Tony Pelea, and Maricio Hernandez, are named as Defendants. 

On June 30, 2015, the City filed a motion to stay the action pending resolution of parallel 

state court proceedings. The Court has twice continued the hearing on the motion because the 

individual defendants have not been served in the case. As of the filing of this order, Plaintiffs 

have not filed a certificate of service showing that the individual defendants have been served.

Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(m) provides that "[i]f a defendant is not served 120 days 

after the complaint is filed, the court . . . must dismiss the action without prejudice against the 

defendant . . . ." As that 120-day period has elapsed without Plaintiffs filing a certificate of 

service showing that the individual defendants have been served, the Court hereby orders Plaintiffs 

to show cause why the Court should not dismiss this case as against the individual defendants 

pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(m). Plaintiff shall file a written response to this 

order to show cause within 14 days. The motion hearing currently set for December 3, 2015 is
