Pending before the Court is Plaintiff’s motion to deem first set of requests for admissions to

17

Defendant as admitted. Docket No. 16. Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 36(a) is self-executing, that

18

is, a failure to respond to requests for admission automatically deems those facts admitted. See, e.g.,

19

American Tech. Corp. v. Mah, 174 F.R.D. 687, 690 (D. Nev. 1997). Therefore, “[a] motion to

20

establish or affirm the admissions upon a party’s failure to admit or object is unnecessary under Rule

21

36(a).” Id., at 690. Accordingly, the pending motion to deem first set of requests for admissions to

22

Defendant as admitted (Docket No. 16) is hereby DENIED.
