On March 29, 2019, Plaintiff Guadalupe V. Hernandez Pineda ("Plaintiff"), through counsel, filed this Petition for Writ of Mandamus action against various federal officials.

Federal officials generally must respond to a complaint within sixty (60) days of service. Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(a)(2).

After more than sixty days elapsed with no appearance by any Defendants, the Court issued an order to show cause ("OSC") why this action should not be dismissed without prejudice for failure to serve Defendants. (Dkt. 5.) The response to the first OSC was due by July 24, 2019. (Id.) Plaintiff failed to respond, and the July 24 deadline has now passed.
