ENTRY OF DEFAULT

This matter is before the undersigned on the Motions for Entry of Default [DE-31; DE32] filed by Plaintiffs, requesting that the court enter default as to Defendants Northeastern
Community Development Corporation and Southern Bank and Trust Company.
The undersigned denied without prejudice Plaintiffs' previous motions for entry of
default because of lack of proof of service. See October 30, 2015, Order [DE-30]. Plaintiffs'
renewed motions for entry of default, however, show that Defendant Northeastern Community

Development Corporation and Defendant Southern Bank and Trust Company were each served
by registered agent via certified mail, return receipt requested, in accordance with N.C. Gen.
Stat. § 1A-1, Rule 40). Both of these defendants have failed to appear, plead, or otherwise
defend. Accordingly, the Motions for Entry of Default [DE-31; DE-32] are GRANTED, and
default is ENTERED against Defendant Northeastern Community Development Corporation and
Defendant Southern Bank and Trust Company for having failed to appear, plead, or otherwise
defend as provided by Rule 55 ofthe Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.
