ORDER

Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(m) provides, "If a defendant is not served within 90 days after the complaint is filed, the court — on motion or on its own after notice to the plaintiff — must dismiss the action without prejudice against that defendant or order that service be made within a specified time." Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(m).

Plaintiff filed the Complaint on April 24, 2019. (Filing No. 1). On April 25, 2019, the Court granted Plaintiff's Motion for Leave to Proceed in forma pauperis (Filing No. 5) and the clerk issued summons for the named defendant on the same date (Filing No. 6). More than 90 days has elapsed since the Complaint was filed. To date, Plaintiff has not filed any return of service indicating service on the defendant, a waiver of service has not been filed, and the defendant has not entered a voluntary appearance. Accordingly,

IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiff shall have until August 27, 2019, to show cause why this case should not be dismissed pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(m) or for want of prosecution. The failure to timely comply with this order may result in dismissal of this action without further notice.
