Re: Dkt. No. 7

15

Defendants.

16

Defendants filed a motion to dismiss certain claims from plaintiff’s first amended

17

complaint on October 22, 2012. Dkt. No. 7. Plaintiff has not responded. Civil Local

18

Rule 7-3(a) requires parties to file and serve an opposition within fourteen days after a

19

motion is filed. In the alternative, a party who does not oppose the motion must file a

20

statement of nonopposition with the court within fourteen days. Civ. L.R. 7-3(b).

21

“Failure to follow a district court’s local rules is a proper ground for dismissal.” Ghazali

22

v. Moran, 46 F.3d 52, 53 (9th Cir. 1995).

23

Accordingly, plaintiff has seven days from the date of this order to show cause

24

why this action should not be dismissed. Also within seven days, plaintiff must consent

25

to or decline the jurisdiction of a United States Magistrate Judge. Form attached.

26

IT IS SO ORDERED.
