UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN
SOUTHERN DIVISION

7-ELEVEN, INC.,
Plaintiff and Counter-Defendant,
Case No. 13-CV-14933
vs.
HON. GEORGE CARAM STEEH
BEYDOUN SERVICE DEARBORN INC.
and HUSSEIN BEYDOUN,
Defendants and Counter-Plaintiffs.
____________________________________/
ORDER OF DISMISSAL WITH PREJUDICE [DOC. 32]
Defendants/counter-plaintiffs, Beydoun Service Dearborn Inc. and Hussein Beydoun,
have been ordered to obtain new counsel or be prepared to proceed pro se. Defendants
were further ordered to answer plaintiff’s amended complaint by May 5, 2014. Defendants
did not do so. 7-Eleven filed a motion to dismiss Beydoun’s counterclaim pursuant to Fed.
R. Civ. P. 41(b) as a sanction for failing to comply with the court’s orders. The motion
came before the court for oral argument on 7-Eleven’s motion for entry of default judgment
and to dismiss counterclaim on August 18, 2014, and neither of the Beydoun
defendants/counter-plaintiffs, nor any representative on their behalf, appeared at the
scheduled date and time. Now therefore, for the reasons stated in 7-Eleven’s motion and
on the record,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that defendants’ counterclaim is DISMISSED with
prejudice.
Dated: August 18, 2014
