UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

PARIS A. EVANS,

Plaintiff,

v.

CAROLYN W. COLVIN, Commissioner 

of Social Security,

Defendant.

No. 2:14-cv-1695 DAD

ORDER

On October 17, 2014, the undersigned granted plaintiff’s motion to proceed in forma 

pauperis and ordered plaintiff to submit to the United States Marshal the documents necessary for 

service of process. (Dkt. No. 4.) Plaintiff was also ordered to file in this court a declaration 

stating the date on which the documents were submitted to the United States Marshal within five 

days after submitting those documents. 

Plaintiff, however, has not filed a declaration stating the date on which the documents 

necessary for service were submitted to the United States Marshall and the defendant has not 

appeared in this action. Plaintiff is advised that Rule 4(m) of the Federal Rules of Civil 

Procedure provides that a defendant must be dismissed if service of the summons and complaint 

is not accomplished on the defendant within 120 days after the complaint was filed.
