Plaintiff,
v.
FREEDOM MOTORS, INC.
Defendants.
CIVIL ACTION NO.
2:13-cv-0514-WMA
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before this court is a motion to dismiss filed by defendant
Freedom Motors, Inc., (“Freedom”), on April 10, 2013. Doc. 3.
Freedom says that this action should be dismissed under 12(b)(3)
because the purchase order signed by plaintiff, Barbara Bates
(“Bates”), included a forum selection clause requiring any related
dispute to be filed in a state or federal court in Michigan.
The
court ordered Bates to respond to defendant’s motion on or before
April 26, 2013. Doc. 4.
After plaintiff filed and the court
granted two motions for extensions of time, the deadline for her to
file her response was June 21, 2013. Because the deadline has
passed with no response from Bates, and because Freedom’s motion is
well-taken, the motion to dismiss will be granted in a separate
order.
Done this 25th day of June, 2013.
