OPINION AND ORDER On January 7, 2016, the court entered an order advising Plaintiff that she must file proof of service in compliance with Fed.R.Civ.P. 4(i)(1) by February 8, 2016. [Dkt. 5]. On February 29, 2016, Plaintiff filed a document which indicates that Plaintiff served an address in Falls Church, Virginia. [Dkt. 6]. The document filed on February 29, 2016, does not comply with the court’s order.

(2) Agency; Corporation; Officer or Employee Sued in an Official Capacity. To serve a United States agency or corporation, or a United States officer or employee sued only in an official capacity, a party must serve the United States and also send a copy of the summons and of the complaint by registered or certified mail to the agency, corporation, officer, or employee. Plaintiff is required to serve properly issued summons and the complaint in this case and to file proof of service, made in accordance with Fed.R.Civ.P. 4, on or before March 30, 2016. Plaintiff is advised that failure to comply with service requirements makes this action subject to dismissal pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 4(m). SO ORDERED this 1st day of March, 2016. 2
