ORDER DIRECTING PLAINTIFFS TO APPEAR AND SHOW CAUSE
MAXINE M. CHESNEY, District Judge.
On May 29, 2019, the Court ordered plaintiffs to show cause, in writing and no later than June 10, 2019, why sanctions should not be imposed for their failure to submit a chambers copy of their complaint, despite two court orders, as well as two courtesy emails from a Deputy Clerk, directing them to do so.
On June 10, 2019, plaintiffs submitted a chambers copy of their complaint and, along with said pleading, filed a Response in which plaintiffs stated there was a "miscommunication" between their counsel's law firm and the "service of process agency." It is unclear from the Response why use of such "third-party service," as opposed to the United States Postal Service, see Civ. L.R. 5-1(e)(7)(F), was necessary to comply with the Court's orders. Moreover, to date, the Court has not received a chambers copy of the Response.
Accordingly, plaintiffs are hereby ORDERED to appear before the Court on Wednesday, July 10, 2019, at 2:00 p.m., to show cause why monetary sanctions should not be imposed.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
