IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ARNOLD W. LEVI, 

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-02-0910 LKK KJM P

vs.

DIRECTOR OF CORRECTIONS, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

Plaintiff is a state prison inmate proceeding pro se with a civil rights action under

42 U.S.C. § 1983. On April 3, 2006, defendant Vong filed a renewed motion for summary

judgment and on April 28, 2006, defendants Perria, Gold, Sgt Featherly, Davis, Branich, Hooper,

Connedy, Duwan and Peterson filed a renewed motion for summary judgment.

On May 2, 2006, this court denied plaintiff’s motion to strike defendant Vong’s

motion for summary judgment and his request for a stay of the proceedings. The court directed

plaintiff to file his opposition to the motions for summary judgment within forty-five days. 

Plaintiff has not done so. 

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 March 18, 2004, 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 March 18, 2004, plaintiff was advised 

that failure to comply with the Local Rules may result in a recommendation that the action be

dismissed.

Good cause appearing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that, within fifteen days of the

date of this order, plaintiff shall file an opposition, if any he has, to the motions for summary

judgment or a statement of non-opposition. Failure to comply with this order will result in a

recommendation that this action be dismissed pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b).

DATED: January 8, 2007.
