ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE 

Plaintiff Ascarie is advised that he must serve summons and copies of his complaint 

upon defendants Gavilan College, Dean Fran Lozano, and Dale Clark. Fed. R. Civ. P. 

4(c). Though Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(m) requires service of the summons and 

complaint upon defendants within ninety (90) days of filing the complaint, the Court will 

extend this deadline. The Court now instructs Ascarie to serve the summons and 

complaint upon defendants by September 6, 2016. Under Rule 4(m), the Court must 

dismiss the complaint if the plaintiff fails to serve the defendants. Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(m). 

The Court also informs Ascarie of the Federal Pro Se Program at the San Jose 

Courthouse. This program provides free information and limited-scope legal advice to 

pro se litigants in federal civil cases. The Federal Pro Se Program is available by 

appointment and on a drop-in basis. The Federal Pro Se Program is available at Room 

2070 in the San Jose United States Courthouse (Monday to Thursday 1:00 – 4:00 pm, on
