UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SCOTT N. JOHNSON,

NO. CIV. S-09-3285 LKK/EFB 

Plaintiff,

v.

CARMASSI FAMILY LIMITED

PARTNERSHIP, a California

limited partnership,

O R D E R

Defendants.

 /

On November 25, 2009, plaintiff filed a complaint against

defendant. A summons was issued the same day. The initial

scheduling conference for this case has been continued twice

because plaintiff has not yet served defendant. The conference is

now set for May 17, 2010. On May 7, 2010, plaintiff filed a status

report indicating that he has still not yet served defendant.

Pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(m), “If a defendant is not

served within 120 days after the complaint is filed the court - on

motion or on its own after notice to the plaintiff - must dismiss

the action without prejudice against that defendant or order that

service be made within a specified time.” Pursuant to this rule,

plaintiff should have served his complaint by March 25, 2010.

days of the issuance of this order. Failure to do so,

without good cause, will result in dismissal of

VACATED.

(3) The status conference is reset for July 19, 2010 at 1:30

p.m. Parties shall file status reports fourteen (14)

days prior to the status conference.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

DATED: May 11, 2010.
