motion to dismiss under Rule 12(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure will, if granted, end your case against the defendant who filed the motion. When deciding a motion to dismiss for failure to exhaust, the Court may consider evidence beyond your complaint, including sworn declarations and other admissible documentary evidence. Moreover, if Defendant produces admissible evidence demonstrating that you failed to exhaust available administrative remedies, your claims against him will be dismissed without prejudice unless your response to Defendant's Motion includes admissible evidence sufficient to show that you exhausted all available administrative remedies or that no administrative remedies were available to you. Types of admissible evidence may include copies of your grievances, grievance responses, and sworn declarations. You must comply with the Local Rules of Civil Procedure in filing your response. You must timely respond to all motions. Rule 78-230(l) of the Local Rules of Civil Procedure provides that the failure to oppose a motion "may be deemed a waiver of any opposition to the granting of the motion . . . ." The Court may, in its discretion, treat your failure to respond to Defendant's Motion to Dismiss as a consent to the granting of that Motion without further notice, and judgment may be entered dismissing Defendant from this action without prejudice. See Brydges v. Lewis, 18 F.3d 651 (9th Cir. 1994) (per curiam). Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiff must file a response to Defendant's Motion to Dismiss (Doc. 43), together with copies of grievances, sworn declarations, or other admissible evidence, no later than January 21, 2011. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Defendant may file a reply within 15 days after service of Plaintiff's response. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Motion to Dismiss will be deemed ready for decision without oral argument on the day following the date set for filing a reply unless otherwise ordered by the Court. //
