Garl et al v. Genesee Valley Auto Mall, Inc.

Filing 5

ORDER Denying Without Prejudice 4 Motion for Entry of Default. Signed by District Judge Sean F. Cox. (JMcC)

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN
SOUTHERN DIVISION
Shawn Garl, et al.,
Plaintiffs,
v.

Civil Case Number 16-13712

Genesee Valley Auto Mall, Inc.,

Sean F. Cox
United States District Court Judge

Defendant.
_______________________________/
ORDER DENYING WITHOUT PREJUDICE DOCKET ENTRY NO. 4
Plaintiffs filed this action on October 18, 2016.
On December 21, 2016, Plaintiff’s filed a “Motion For Entry of Default.” (Docket Entry
No. 4) (emphasis added). Because the document was filed as a motion – rather than a “Request
for Clerk’s Entry of Default” – the Clerk’s Office has taken no action on the request.
If Plaintiffs wish to obtain a Clerk’s Entry of Default, they may use the form provided on
the district court’s internet webpage for making that request. The Court cautions Plaintiffs’
counsel, however, that service upon the corporate defendant in this case does not appear proper
under the applicable court rules.
The Court hereby DENIES WITHOUT PREJUDICE Docket Entry No. 4.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
