FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JOHN THOMAS DRAYDEN, III,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-05-1028 MCE KJM P

JEANNE WOODFORD, et al., 

Defendants. ORDER

 /

On October 26, 2006, defendant filed a motion to dismiss under the authority of

Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b) and for summary judgment under the authority of Federal

Rule of Civil Procedure 56. Although plaintiff received additional time in which to file his

opposition, he 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 January 17, 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
