written response to this Order to Show Cause within twenty (20) days of the date of this Order. 

If Plaintiff desires more time to file an opening brief or wishes to dismiss this action, Plaintiff

should so state in the response. 

Failure to respond to this Order to Show Cause will result in dismissal of this action.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
