ORDER

On November 10, 2009, plaintiff American Indoor

Football Association, Inc. (AIFA) filed the instant

lawsuit in this court. On April 20, 2010, AIFA filed a

motion for extension of time to perfect service on

defendant Kelly Lockwood. The motion and accompanying

affidavit allege failed attempts to serve Lockwood up to

and including an attempt on January 24, 2010. However,

AIFA provides no explanation for its decision to wait

nearly three months after that final attempt to request

an extension of time. More importantly, AIFA provides no

explanation for its decision to wait more than five

months after this lawsuit was filed, and more than a

month after the 120-day-time limit for service had

expired, to request said extension. Finally, and

relatedly, AIFA makes no attempt to explain why this

court should grant a motion for extension filed after the

expiration of the 120-day-time limit.

Accordingly, plaintiff American Indoor Football

Association, Inc. is ORDERED to file a memorandum, on or

before April 28, 2010, that explains the above-described

delay in filing the motion for extension. Specifically,

the memorandum should explain why the court should grant

a motion for extension filed after the expiration of the

120-day-time limit for service of process.

DONE, this the 21st day April, 2010.
