vs.

C.A. TERHUNE, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

On November 3, 2006, defendants filed a motion to dismiss pursuant to Federal Rule of

Civil Procedure 12(b). Plaintiff has not opposed the motion. 

Local Rule 78-230(m) provides in part: “Failure of the responding party to file written

opposition or to file a statement of no opposition may be deemed a waiver of any opposition to

the granting of the motion . . . .” On July 31, 2006, plaintiff was advised of the requirements for

filing an opposition to the motion and that failure to oppose such a motion may be deemed a

waiver of opposition to the motion. 

Local Rule 11-110 provides that failure to comply with the Local Rules “may be grounds

for imposition of any and all sanctions authorized by statute or Rule or within the inherent power

of the Court.” In the order filed July 31, 2006, plaintiff was advised that failure to comply with

the Local Rules may result in a recommendation that the action be dismissed.
