MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
HOLDERMAN, District Judge:
Plaintiff Anna M. Juarez brought this sexual harassment action against defendants Peter Shkrutz and Ameritech Mobile Communications, Inc. (“AMCI”).
Ms. Juarez’s counsel failed to serve Mr. Shkrutz with the summons and complaint within 120 days of filing her complaint, however, as required by Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(j). Because Ms. Juarez’s counsel failed to show good cause for not serving Mr. Shkrutz within the 120-day period, the court was required to dismiss this lawsuit as to Mr. Shkrutz. See Juarez v. Ameritech, No. 89 C 00017…
