PROCEEDINGS (IN CHAMBERS): ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE RE DEFAULT JUDGMENT
MICHAEL W. FITZGERALD, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE.
On July 20, 2015, the Court held a hearing on the Order to Show Cause regarding Default Judgment issued on June 11, 2015. The Court found that the Order to Show was discharged, and ordered counsel to proceed expeditiously in requesting the clerk to enter default and then filing a Motion for Default Judgment.
Several months have now passed, and Plaintiff has made no filings in this case since. Accordingly, the Court ORDERS Plaintiff to show cause, in writing, why this action should not be dismissed by October 12, 2015. This Order will be discharged if Plaintiff files a Request for Entry of Default with the clerk by October 12, 2015, and a Motion for Entry of Default Judgment no later than 14 days after default is entered by the clerk. Plaintiff's failure to meet these deadlines will result in dismissal of the case with prejudice as to Defendant Peter Chinn.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
