Case No. 14-cv-02785-HRL
ORDER DIRECTING CROSSCOMPLAINANT TO FILE MOTION
FOR DEFAULT JUDGMENT
Re: Dkt. No. 48

Defendants.
The plaintiff in this case sued two corporations. Both defendants were served, but only
American Safety Casualty Insurance Company (“ASCIC”) appeared to defend itself. ASCIC filed
cross-claims against the absent defendant and against two individual cross-defendants.

plaintiff voluntarily dismissed its claims and the court closed this case, Dkt. No. 42, but the court
re-opened this case for the limited purpose of permitting ASCIC to seek default judgments against
the cross-defendants. Dkt. Nos. 45, 46. The Clerk of Court entered defaults against the crossdefendants several months ago, Dkt. No. 48, but ASCIC has not yet moved for default judgment.
ASCIC shall move for default judgment on the cross-claims, if at all, no later than March
22, 2016.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
