ORDER TO APPEAR OR PLEAD
CIVIL ACTION NO. 4:07-3579-TLW
IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF THE UNITED STATES
FOR THE DISTRICT
OF SOUTH CAROLINA
FLORENCE DIVISION
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, vs. RANDOLPH JOHNSON Defendant.
This matter is before the Court on motion of the Plaintiff for an Order directing the absent Defendant, Randolph Johnson, to appear or plead as is authorized by the provisions of 28 U.S.C. §1655.
This is an action to foreclose a mortgage on real property situate in Darlington County, South Carolina, as is more fully described in the Complaint on file in the office of the Clerk of this Court.
It appears from the affidavit of plaintiff’s attorney that the absent defendant, Randolph Johnson, formerly resided at 1212 Robinson Street, Hartsville, South Carolina 29550, in this District, but this is no longer the address of the defendant, whose current address is unknown to the affiant and said defendant cannot be located and served within the State of South Carolina, making personal service impracticable.
Accordingly, as is authorized by the provisions of 28 U.S.C. §1655, it is
ORDERED
That the defendant, Randolph Johnson, be served by publication of this Order once a week for six consecutive weeks in the News And Press, a newspaper published in this District and having a general circulation in the county where the mortgaged property is situate.
That the defendant, Randolph Johnson, appear or plead to the Complaint on file in this action within twenty days from the last date of such publication;
That a certified copy of this Order, and the Summons and Complaint, shall be served upon the defendant personally if practicable, wherever found, if the location of the defendant becomes known to the plaintiff’s attorney before a final decree of foreclosure is entered in this action; and that a copy of this Order shall be served upon the person or persons in possession or in charge of the property, if any; and
Upon failure of the defendant, Randolph Johnson, to appear or plead to the Complaint within the time allowed, the Court will proceed to a hearing and adjudication of this cause in the same manner as if personal service had been effected within the State of South Carolina, subject to the provisions of 28 U.S.C. §1655.

Plaintiff not having affirmatively sought a deficiency judgment, the bidding will not stay open for the customary thirty (30) days following the sale. Sale shall require the highest bidder, other than the plaintiff, to make a deposit of five percent (5%) of the bid as earnest money and as evidence of good faith. Said deposit shall be made by cashier’s check or money order. If the plaintiff is the successful bidder at the sale, the amount due on its mortgage may be used as the equivalent of cash. Should the person making the highest bid at the sale fail to comply with the terms of the bid by depositing the said five percent (5%), then the premises shall be resold at such bidder’s risk on the same sales date, or some subsequent date, as the selling officer may find convenient and advantageous. Should the last and highest bidder fail to comply with the terms of the bid within ten (10) days of the final acceptance of the bid, the entire deposit shall be forfeited, and the selling officer shall re-advertise and resell the property on the same terms and at the bidder’s risk on a subsequent sales day.
Under Title 28 of the United States Code, section 566, it is the duty of the United States Marshal to enforce the decree of the United States District Court and under section 564, the Marshal is authorized to exercise the same powers of the Sheriff in conducting the sale. It is in the interest of justice that the sale be conducted to yield the best price through free, fair, and competitive bidding. Any act that appears to prevent a free, fair, and open sale or to suppress the bidding or otherwise adversely affects the sale, will not be allowed. If such an act occurs, then the sale will be halted. Further, the individual or individuals who perform any act which appears to contribute to the sale being halted or otherwise adversely affected, may be charged with contempt of court, to be sanctioned accordingly, including but not limited to paying for the costs and expenses of the scheduled sale.

ORDER TO APPEAR OR PLEAD
CIVIL ACTION NO. 4:07-3575-TLW
IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF THE UNITED STATES
FOR THE DISTRICT OF SOUTH CAROLINA
FLORENCE DIVISION
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, vs. JOHNNY LEE MURPHY, SR., Individually and As Personal Representative of the Estate of JOHN HENRY MURPHY, Deceased; YOUNG & YOUNG FUNERAL HOME and PIONEER FINANCE, Defendants.
This matter is before the Court on Plaintiff’s Motion for an Order authorized by 28 U.S.C. §1655 directed to absent Defendant, Johnny Lee Murphy, Sr..
This is an action to enforce a lien upon real property located in Darlington County, South Carolina, as more fully described in the Complaint on file in the office of the Clerk of this Court.
It appears from the affidavit of Plaintiff’s attorney that the absent defendant formerly resided within this District, but the current address of the absent defendant is 206 N. Glover Street, Baltimore, Maryland 21224, and that personal service may be effected at that address.
Accordingly, as authorized by 28 U.S.C. §1655, it is
O R D E R E D
1. The Summons and Complaint together, with a certified copy of this Order, shall be served upon Johnny Lee Murphy, Sr. at the above address by the United States Marshal for the Northern District of Maryland, who shall promptly thereafter submit his return of service or endeavor to the Marshal of this District for filing with the Court;
2. Johnny Lee Murphy, Sr. appear or plead to the Complaint on file in this action within twenty days from the date of such personal service upon his.
3. In the event the return of the United States Marshal for the Northern District of Maryland reflects that he has been unable to locate the absent defendant for personal service in his District, the Marshal for the District of South Carolina shall cause a copy of this Order to be published once a week for six consecutive weeks in the News And Press, a newspaper published in this District and having a general circulation in the county where the mortgaged property is situated, and the Marshal shall serve a copy of this Order upon the person or persons in possession or in charge of the mortgaged property, if any; and
Upon failure of the said absent defendant to appear or plead to the Complaint within the time allowed, the Court will proceed to a hearing and adjudication of this cause in the same manner as if personal service had been effected within the State of South Carolina, subject to the provisions of 28 U.S.C. §1655.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
