be imposed for a failure to comply with this Court’s order. Plaintiff is ORDERED to file a 

written response to this Order to Show Cause no later than January 2, 2017. If Plaintiff requires 

more time to serve the summons, she should so state in the response. Plaintiff is advised that 

timely service of the summons is important in this case, as the other important deadlines 

including the lodging of the administrative record, and the briefing schedule are dependent on the 

filing of an executed summons.

Failure to respond to this Order to Show Cause within the time specified may result 

in monetary or other sanctions including dismissal of this action. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
