Order Dismissing Parties
Tue 10/03 2:22 PM
Order Dismissing Parties: The claims against defendants Hillel Isseroff, Dermot Finnan, and Stephen Hamilton are dismissed. Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(m) requires plaintiff to serve domestic defendants within 90 days of filing the complaint. That deadline passed on July 27, 2017. In addition, plaintiff failed to respond to the court's September 26, 2017 order to show cause why these claims should not be dismissed. The claims against these three defendants are therefore dismissed without prejudice. Party Hillel Isseroff, Dermot Finnan and Stephen Hamilton terminated. Ordered by Judge Allyne R. Ross on 10/3/2017. (Clark, Sarah) |

ORDER. The court is in receipt of defendant Rivie Schwebel's6 letter, alleging that any delay in addressing his motion to dismiss will cause unspecified "continued and irreparable losses." However, the other thirty-six defendants in this action have not been served. Addressing Mr. Schwebel's motion at this juncture, particularly without a pre-motion conference and when plaintiff has had no opportunity to amend its complaint, all but guarantees that there will be several rounds of briefing on motions to dismiss. To preserve the resources of the court and the parties, the court will not move forward on any motion to dismiss until all defendants are served. Therefore, plaintiff is ordered to serve all remaining defendants on or before June 20, 2017. . Any defendant, or group of defendants, who would like to be heard on a motion to dismiss, shall file a pre motion letter in accordance with my individual rules of practice on or before June 27, 2017.
