FINAL JUDGMENT

This matter is before the court on plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment and brief in support.

(Docs. 23 & 24). Any party opposing the motion was ordered to file a response in opposition on or

before June 20, 2005. (Doc. 26). On June 28, 2005, after receiving no opposition, the court entered

an order viewing the defendants’ non-response as an oversight, and granting defendants an extension

until July 5, 2005, to file their opposition. (Doc. 27). The court further stated that “[i]f no opposition is

filed, the plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment is deemed granted without further order from the

court and final judgment will be entered accordingly.” (Doc. 27). To date, no response has been filed. 

Accordingly, the court finds that final judgment is due to be entered in favor of plaintiff.

It is hereby ORDERED, ADJUDGED, and DECREED that final judgment in this case is

hereby entered against defendants, Hogg Engineering Corporation, Donald Ray Hogg, Jr. and Mexia

Water Systems, Inc., and in favor of plaintiff, Employers Mutual Casualty Company . The court
