v.

[ECF No. 8]
U.S. Bancorp; Andrew Cecerre,

8
Defendants
9
On August 30, 2017, Defendants U.S. Bancorp and Andrew Cecere moved to dismiss all

10
11

claims under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6).1 Corley requested, and was granted, an

12

extension of his deadline to oppose the motion to dismiss, which made his response due by

13

September 27, 2017.2 That deadline expired a week ago, and Corley has not responded to or sought

14

a second extension of time to oppose the motion to dismiss.
Corley’s silence constitutes his consent to granting the motion under Local Rule 7-2(d),

15
16

which states that “[t]he failure of an opposing party to file points and authorities in response to any

17

motion . . . constitutes a consent to the granting of the motion.”3 Accordingly, and with good cause

18

appearing, I construe plaintiff’s failure to oppose the motion as his consent to granting it, and
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss [ECF No. 8] is

19
20

GRANTED. This case is dismissed. The Clerk of Court is instructed to VACATE the October

21

23, 2017, hearing and CLOSE THIS CASE.
Dated October 4, 2017.
