Plaintiff is not proceeding in forma pauperis and is, therefore, responsible for serving the Defendants with process, consisting of the summons and a copy of the complaint. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 4 (c). The record does not reflect that service has occurred. Plaintiffs in civil actions, who proceed pro se have a responsibility to comply with this court's Local Civil Rules, as well as the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4 "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... or order that service be made within a specified time. But if the plaintiff shows good cause for the failure, the court must extend the time for service for an appropriate period." Fed. R. Civ. P. 4 (m). The 90 -day period having run, it is hereby ORDERED that Plaintiff SHOW CAUSE in writing by 10/3/22, why this action should not be dismissed. Plaintiff's failure to effectuate service or to satisfactorily respond to the present order by 10/3/22 may result in the dismissal of this action, without further notice. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 4 (m); Local Civil Rule 83.23. The Clerk of the Court shall mail a copy of this order to: JOEL J. BRANFORD, R71914-054, FCI RAY BROOK, P.O. Box 900, Ray Brook, NY 12977. Signed by Judge Tanya S.
