May 5, 2023 ***NOTICE TO ATTORNEY REGARDING DEFICIENT REQUEST FOR ISSUANCE OF SUMMONS. Notice to Attorney Miriam Leala Hurwitz Document No. #3 Request for Issuance of Summons,. The filing is deficient for the following reason(s): the issuance of summons for the Social Security Administration and the U.S. Attorney is not applicable in this Social Security case. The Clerk of Court will not issue a summons in a case filed by a single plaintiff under 42 U.S.C. 405(g), which names the Commissioner for Social Security as the sole defendant and which claim is limited to judicial review on the record of a final decision denying an application for social security benefits. See Rule 3 of the Supplemental Rules for Social Security Actions, Cmte. N. Excerpt ("Rule 3 provides a means for giving notice of the action that supersedes Civil Rule 4(i)(2). The Notice of Electronic Filing sent by the court suffices for service, so long as it provides a means of electronic access to the complaint. Notice to the Commissioner is sent to the appropriate office. The plaintiff need not serve a summons and complaint under Civil Rule 4.")... (jgo)
