IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS
JONESBORO DIVISION
JEFF D. FREEMAN
V.
PLAINTIFF
CASE NO. 3:14-CV-207 DPM/BD
CRAIGHEAD COUNTY JAIL, et al.
DEFENDANTS
ORDER
Defendant Moyer, the only remaining defendant, has moved for summary
judgment on all claims against him. Mr. Freeman now has an opportunity to file a
response opposing the motion. To be considered, the response must be filed within
fourteen (14) days of this Order.
In opposing the motion for summary judgment, Mr. Freeman may attach affidavits
that he or others have signed. Because affidavits are sworn statements, they must be
either notarized or declared under penalty of perjury (see 28 U.S.C. § 1746). Unsworn
statements will not be considered in deciding the motion for summary judgment. And to
be considered, an affidavit must be based on the personal knowledge of the person who
signs it.
If Mr. Freeman files a response, he must also file a separate, short statement
setting forth the disputed facts that he believes must be decided at a trial. See Local Rule
56.1, Rules of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas.
While Mr. Freeman is not required to file a response to Defendant Moyer’s motion for
summary judgment, if he does not respond, the Court can assume that the facts set out in
Defendant Moyer’s Statement of Facts (#17) are true.
IT IS SO ORDERED, this 1st day of July, 2015.
