UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF LOUISIANA
JORGE MENES
CIVIL ACTION
VERSUS
NO. 17-5019
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, ET AL
SECTION “B”(1)
ORDER AND REASONS
Before the Court is Defendant United States of America’s
“Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Subject Matter Jurisdiction” (Rec.
Doc. 7),
Local Rule 7.5 of the Eastern District of Louisiana requires
that memoranda in opposition with citations of authorities be filed
and
served
no
later
than
eight
(8)
days
before
the
noticed
submission date. No memoranda in opposition to the instant motion,
set for submission on August 9, 2017 have been submitted. No party
has
filed
a
motion
to
continue
the
noticed
August
9,
2017
submission date or filed a motion for extension of time within
which to oppose the motion. Accordingly, the motion is deemed to
be unopposed. It appearing to this Court that the motion has merit,
IT IS ORDERED that the motion to dismiss is GRANTED and
Plaintiff’s claims against United States of America are hereby
DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.
A motion for reconsideration of this Order based on the
appropriate Federal Rule of Civil Procedure, if any, must be filed
within
thirty
(30)
days
of
this
Order.
The
motion
must
be
accompanied by opposition memoranda to the original motion.
Because such a motion would not have been necessary had timely
opposition memoranda been filed, the costs incurred in connection
with the motion, including attorney's fees, will be assessed
against the party moving for reconsideration. See Fed. R. Civ. P.
16, 83.
A statement of costs conforming to Local Rule 54.3 shall
be submitted by all parties desiring to be awarded costs and
attorney's fees no later than eight (8) days prior to the noticed
submission date of the motion for reconsideration.
New Orleans, Louisiana, this 9th day of August, 2017.
