(PC) Mabry v. Santos Doc. 36 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 8 FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 9 TONY MABRY, 10 Plaintiff, 11 vs. 12 ROBERT SANTOS, 13 Defendant. 14 / 15 On June 25, 2010, defendant filed a motion to dismiss pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 16 12(b)(6). Plaintiff has not opposed the motion. 17 Local Rule 230(l) provides in part: "Failure of the responding party to file written 18 opposition or to file a statement of no opposition may be deemed a waiver of any opposition to 19 the granting of the motion . . . ." On February 17, 2010, plaintiff was advised of the requirements 20 for filing an opposition to a motion to dismiss and that failure to oppose such a motion may be 21 deemed a waiver of opposition to the motion. 22 Accordingly, plaintiff's failure to oppose should be deemed a waiver of 23 opposition to the granting of the motion. In the alternative, the court has reviewed the motion 24 and finds that it has merit on the various grounds raised, including, inter alia, an alleged failure to 25 satisfactorily comply with Fed. R. Civ. P. 8(a)(2) in the form of providing a short and plain 26 1 Dockets.Justia.com No. CIV S-09-1581 WBS GGH P FINDINGS & RECOMMENDATIONS 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 statement showing plaintiff's entitlement to relief.
