UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA

JOEL AARON SILBERMAN,
Plaintiff,
v.

Civil Action No. 18-1022 (JEB)

DAVID J. SHULKIN, et al.,
Defendants.

MEMORANDUM OPINION
Pro se Plaintiff Joel Silberman filed a Complaint on April 30, 2018, against several
individuals and the Veterans Medical Center, claiming he was assaulted at the Center. See ECF
No. 1. When Defendants moved to dismiss, noting Plaintiff had failed to exhaust his
administrative remedies under the Federal Tort Claims Act, see ECF No. 20, the Court instructed
Plaintiff that he had to respond by March 27, 2019, or the motion would be granted as conceded.
See ECF No. 21. As Plaintiff has filed no opposition, the Court will treat Defendant’s Motion as
conceded and dismiss the case without prejudice. See LCvR 7(b). A contemporaneous Order
will so state.

Date: April 2, 2019
