Description
Tung-Hsiung Wu (Sean Wu) sued T.W. Wang, the publisher of World Journal, for false-light invasion of privacy in August of 2003. World Journal submitted a stipulated order to the district court in March of 2004, seeking to stay the proceedings pending the outcome of a related case in Taiwan. Assuming that the order would be entered, World Journal did not file an answer to Wus complaint and Wu did not seek a default judgment against World Journal. The district court, however, took no action on the proposed order. Instead, on the basis of its prior order to show cause why the case should not be dismissed for failure to serve process, it dismissed Wus lawsuit. For the reasons set forth below, we REVERSE the judgment of the district court and REMAND the case for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.
