On April 12, 2005, defendants’ Union Pacific, and National

Railroad Passenger Corp. (AMTRAK) filed a Motion for Summary

Judgment to be heard on May 27, 2005. 

A preliminary review of the file and the docket, in

preparation for the pending motion, shows that no return of

service has been filed showing service was completed upon

defendants Jacob Keating, Sacramento County, City of 

Sacramento, Yolo County, and City of West Sacramento as required

by Fed R. Civ. P. 4(l) and Local Rule 4-20(b). 

The court, therefore, makes the following orders:

1. Plaintiff is ordered to show cause why defendants Jacob

Keating, Sacramento County, City of Sacramento, Yolo county, and

City of West Sacramento should not be dismissed for failure to

timely serve pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(m). 

2. Plaintiff shall file their response to the Order to

Show Cause on or before May 20, 2005.

3. Accordingly, the hearing on the motion for summary

judgment set for May 13, 2005 is VACATED and RESET for 

May 27, 2005 at 10:00 a.m. The hearing on the order to show

cause shall follow the motion hearing. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

DATED: May 3, 2005.
