MANUEL ARREOLA,
vs.

JOHN HENRY, et al.,
15
Defendant.

The Ninth Circuit recently held that "Rand and Wyatt notices must be served
19
concurrently with motions to dismiss and motions for summary judgment so that pro se
20
prisoners will have fair, timely and adequate notice of what is required of them in order to
21
oppose those motions." Woods v. Carey, Nos. 09-15548 & 09-16113, slip op. 7871, 7874
22
(9th Cir. July 6, 2012). Because it appears that a Rand notice was not served concurrently
23
with the pending motion for summary judgment in this case, the Court will provide said
24
notice now:
25
Plaintiff is advised that a motion for summary judgment under Rule 56 of the
26
Federal Rules of Civil Procedure will, if granted, end your case. Rule 56 tells
27
you what you must do in order to oppose a motion for summary judgment.
28
Generally, summary judgment must be granted when there is no genuine issue
of material fact – that is, if there is no real dispute about any fact that would
1
affect the result of your case, the party who asked for summary judgment is
2
entitled to judgment as a matter of law, which will end your case. When a
3
party you are suing makes a motion for summary judgment that is properly
4
supported by declarations (or other sworn testimony), you cannot simply rely
5
on what your complaint says. Instead, you must set out specific facts in
6
declarations, depositions, answers to interrogatories, or authenticated
7
documents, as provided in Rule 56(e), that contradicts the facts shown in the
8
defendant's declarations and documents and show that there is a genuine issue
9
of material fact for trial. If you do not submit your own evidence in opposition,
United States District Court
For the Northern District of California
10
summary judgment, if appropriate, may be entered against you. If summary
11
judgment is granted, your case will be dismissed and there will be no trial.
12
Rand v. Rowland, 154 F.3d 952, 962-63 (9th Cir. 1998) (en banc) (App A).
13
Because Plaintiff already has filed an opposition to the pending motion for summary
14
judgment in this case, he may file a supplemental opposition within 15 days of this order.
15
Defendants shall file a supplemental reply to any supplemental opposition within 7 days
16
thereafter.
