1 Plaintiff is advised that "[a] motion for summary

judgment under Rule 56 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure

will, if granted, end your case . Rule 56 tells you what you

must do in order to oppose a motion for summary judgment. 

Generally, summary judgment must be granted when there is no

genuine issue of material fact--that is, if there is no real

dispute about any fact that would affect the result of your

case, the party who asked for summary judgment is entitled to

judgment as a matter of law, which will end your case. When a

party . . . makes a motion for summary judgment that is

properly supported by declarations (or other sworn testimony) .

. . you must set out specific facts in declarations,

depositions, answers to interrogatories, or authenticated

documents, as provided in Rule 56(e), that contradict the facts

shown in the [party’s] declarations and documents and show that

there is a genuine issue of material fact for trial. If you do

not submit your own evidence in opposition, summary judgment,

if appropriate, may be entered against you. If summary

judgment is granted, your case will be dismissed and there will

be no trial." Rand v. Rowland, 154 F.3d 952, 963 (9th Cir.

1998).

filed documents as appropriate.1 Any reply shall be filed by 

April 30, 2007. The court will then schedule a hearing if one

is required. 

If defendant elects not to re-notice its motion for

summary judgment, the court will schedule a status conference

for the purpose of setting a pretrial and trial schedule.
