IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

RENADA DENISE WRIGHT, No. CIV S-07-1023-CMK

Plaintiff, 

vs. ORDER

COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL 

SECURITY,

Defendant.

 /

Plaintiff, who is proceeding pro se, brings this action for judicial review of a final

decision of the Commissioner of Social Security under 42 U.S.C. § 405(g). On June 6, 2007, the

court granted plaintiff’s application for leave to proceed in forma pauperis and directed plaintiff

to submit a completed summons and copies of the complaint to the United States Marshal, and to

file notice of such submission with the court within 15 days. On June 22, 2007, a copy of the

summons was filed with the court, along with a proof of service indicating that plaintiff had

personally served the summons and complaint. The proof of service, however, was not signed. 

It appears that plaintiff never submitted service documents to the United States Marshal as

directed. 

Plaintiff will be given another opportunity to comply with the court’s June 6,

2007, order. In particular, plaintiff is instructed not to attempt service on her own. Upon

submission of documents, the United States Marshal will effect proper service on defendant.

action for lack of prosecution and failure to comply with court rules and orders. See Local Rule

11-110.

the summons to plaintiff;

2. Within 15 days from the date of this order, plaintiff shall submit to the

United States Marshal a completed summons and copies of the complaint and file a statement

with the court that said documents have been submitted to the United States Marshal; 

3. The United States Marshal is directed to serve all process without

prepayment of costs not later than 60 days from the date of this order, such service of process to

be completed by delivering a copy of the summons and complaint to the United States Attorney

for the Eastern District of California, and by sending a copy of the summons and complaint by

registered or certified mail to the Attorney General of the United States in Washington, D.C.,

pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(i)(1)(A) & (B);

4. The United States Marshal shall also send a copy of the summons and

complaint by registered or certified mail to the Commissioner of Social Security, c/o Office of

General Counsel, 6401 Security Blvd., Room 611, Altmeyer Bldg., Baltimore, MD 21235,
