IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

RAM BHAROSE,

Plaintiff, MISC S-04-0305 WBS JFM PS

v.

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

et al.,

Defendants. ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

 /

On October 1, 2004, plaintiff filed a document entitled “Petition to Quash

Summons and for Damages.” This document, the first document filed in this action, was not

noticed for hearing and contained no certificate of service. The court’s docket sheet does not

reflect that summons were issued. On April 14, 2005, counsel for defendants filed a motion to

dismiss this action for plaintiff’s failure to accomplish service of process as required by Fed. R.

Civ. P. 4(i). That motion was noticed for hearing on May 19, 2005. Plaintiff has failed to timely

file an opposition. Pursuant to Local Rule 78-230(h), the court has determined that the matter

will be submitted on the papers without oral argument. 

It appears plaintiff has not complied with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. 

Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(i). Accordingly, plaintiff will be directed to show cause, within ten days, why

defendants’ motion to dismiss should not be granted.
