WILLIAMS, Defendant. __________________________/ ORDER Plaintiff filed a motion for summary judgment (doc. 14). Defendant has not filed any response. This order is entered to allow any defendant, who is proceeding pro se, an opportunity to submit additional materials if he so desires and to advise defendant of his burden in opposing summary judgment. Summary judgment will be granted “if the movant shows that there is no genuine dispute as to any material fact and the movant is entitled to judgment as a matter of law.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(a).

Evidentiary material acceptable in opposition to the motion includes sworn affidavits, sworn documents, or other evidence indicating the existence of a genuine issue of material fact. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(c). Sworn affidavits offered in opposition to the motion “must be made on personal knowledge, set out facts that would be admissible in evidence, and show that the affiant or declarant is competent to testify on the matters stated.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(c)(4). Defendant is hereby notified that the file will be referred to the undersigned judge on August 7, 2012 and the Court will take Plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment under advisement on that date.
