Following plaintiff's Application to Enter Default, the clerk entered a Notice of Entry of Default on February 26, 2010. Plaintiff filed his Motion for Default Judgment with this Court on May 13, 2010, arguing, among other things, that the answer filed by defendant Yuen did not constitute an answer on behalf of defendant HPC IT Education Center. Plaintiff also maintained that there had been no response from defendants with regards to the ADR and other forms required to be filed for the case pursuant to the Civil Local Rules and Rule 26(f) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and that, on February 11, 2010, he learned that Koo & Associates, the law firm plaintiff understood to be representing defendants in this action, no longer represented either defendant.
