November 28, 2022 Filing 23 MINUTE entry before the Honorable John Robert Blakey: Plaintiff sued her employer, 4 Management, Inc., as well as the company's operations manager (Sylvia Seals) and a "partner" in the company (Latral Miller). See #1 . Plaintiff filed her complaint 3/12/22, but, to date, she appears to have served only Miller and 4Management (though no return of summons appears on the docket). She has not yet served Defendant Seals. Additionally, her most recent status report #22 indicates that one of the served Defendants, Miller, has apparently filed for Bankruptcy, suggesting that Plaintiff may not be able to proceed against him at this time and that the entry of default may be inappropriate. Plaintiff is hereby advised of the duty to timely serve under Rule 4, and shall file an updated status report by 12/16/22 proposing next steps to advance this case. At that time, the Court will dismiss any unserved Defendant. Mailed notice (gel, )
