ORDER GRANTING UNOPPOSED

MOTION TO DISMISS WITHOUT

PREJUDICE [DOC. 8]

On May 1, 2013, Plaintiff filed the instant Complaint. (Doc. 1.) On September 5, 2013,

Defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss this action in its entirety. (MTD [Doc. 8].) On September

6, 2013, the Court issued a scheduling order which required Plaintiff to respond to the Motion to

Dismiss on November 1, 2013. (Scheduling Order [Doc. 9].) Plaintiff has not opposed the

motion as of the date of this order. 

Civil Local Rule 7.1(f.3.c) provides that “[i]f an opposing party fails to file papers in the

manner required by Local Rule 7.1.e.2, that failure may constitute a consent to the granting of

that motion or other ruling by the court.” The Ninth Circuit has held that a district court may

properly grant a motion to dismiss for failure to respond. See generally Ghazali v. Moran, 46

F.3d 52, 52 (9th Cir. 1995) (per curiam) (affirming dismissal for failure to file timely opposition

Court GRANTS Defendants’ motion to dismiss WITHOUT PREJUDICE. (Doc. 8.)

IT IS SO ORDERED.
