### UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION OFFICE OF HEARINGS

WASHINGTON, D.C.

IN THE MATTER OF 

### CHRISTINE CLOUD FDMS NO. FAA-2014-0321 (Civil Penalty Action)



### AGENCY'S MOTIONS TO DEEM ALLEGATIONS ADMITTED AND FOR A DECISION The Complainant moves for an Order deeming admitted each allegation in Sections I and II ofthe complaint. The basis for this motion is that Respondent failed to answer the complaint within 30 days 1 ofthe date on which it was served. In accordance with§ 13.209(t) ofthe Rules ofPractice in FAA Civil Penalty Actions, 14 C.F.R, Part 13, Subpart G, unless Respondent demonstrates that there is good cause for this failure, it constitutes an admission ofthe truth of each allegation contained in the complaint. This motion is based on the following facts: I. Complainant served the complaint on Respondent by certified mail, return receipt requested, on June 3, 2014.2 2, Included at the end ofthe complaint is a notice informing Respondent ofthe requirement to submit an answer within 30 days ofservice and the fact the failure to do so, without good cause, constitutes an admission ofthe truth ofeach allegation in the complaint. 3. Respondent received the complaint on Juoe 6, 2014. 3 4. Included in the Procedural Order served on Juoe 13, 2014, is another statement regarding the requirement to submit an answer within 30 days ofthe service ofthe complaint. 5. To date Respondent has not submitted an answer.

1Because the complaint was served by mail, Respondent had 11n additional five days. 14 C.F.R. § 13.2ll(e). 'See Exhibit A, which is a copy ofComplainant's file copy ofthe cover letter and the PS Fonns 3800, Certified Mail Receipts, for the cover letter and complaint sent to Respondent and the Hearing Docket. 3 See Exhibit B, which is 11 copy ofthe PS Fonns 3811, Domestic Return Receipt, showing Respondent 1 Sreceipt on June 6, 2014.

### Because the complaint was served on Respondent by mail on June 3, 2014, she had until July 8, 2014, to submit an 

### answer. She is already 7 days late, and this period is still growing. Unless Respondent can 

### demonstrate good cause for the entire period ofthis failure,§ 13.209(!) requires that each allegation in the complaint be deemed admitted. Absent such a showing ofgood cause, Complainant is entitled to what it now seeks-an Order deeming admitted each allegation in Sections 

### I and 

### II ofthe complaint. In the Matter of Air Florida Express, Inc., 

### FAA Order No. 2002-9 (Aprill5, 2002); In the Matter of RonaldBurger, 

### FAA Order No. 2002-8 (Aprill5, 2002), On the assumption that Respondent cannot demonstrate good cause for her 

### failure to timely submit an answer, Complainant moves for a decision with respect to the violations alleged in paragraph III, 1 

### ofthe complaint. The basis for this motion is that with the allegations in Sections I 

### and II 

### ofthe complaint deemed admitted, there is no genuine issue as to a material fact, and the Complainant 

### is entitled as a matter oflaw to an Order finding that 

### Respondent violated the regulations as alleged in paragraph III.! 

### ofthe complaint. 4 

### Respectfully submitted this 15th day ofJuly 2014. HOWARD L. 

### MARTIN, JR Regional Counsel 

# By:m**~** Glenn H. 

### Brown Attorney

4 Ifthe allegations in Sections [and U ofthe complaint are deemed admitted and this marion for decision is granted, the only remaining issue will be the amount ofany civil penalty.
