ORDER 

PLAINTIFF 

DEFENDANTS 

After twice extending Dorado's time to serve First Initiatives, the 

Court said it wouldn't allow any more extensions. NQ 11 & 21. Dorado 

completed service, NQ 26, but mistakenly served the state court 

summons, NQ 30 at 1. First Initiatives has moved to dismiss for 

insufficient process. NQ 28. The Court is reluctant to delay this case any 

further. But Dorado's mistake is good cause to reopen and extend his 

time to serve First Initiatives until 24 February 2020. FED. R. Crv. 

P. 4(m). Dorado's counsel must present a proper summons for the 

Clerk to issue. FED. R. CIV. P. 4(b). Affidavit of service due by 

28 February 2020. Dorado's motion, NQ 30, is granted as modified. First 

Initiatives' motion to dismiss, NQ 28, is denied without prejudice.
