Plaintiff,
Summary Judgment
Advice Notice
v.
JD KATHLEEN HALEY, ET AL.,
Defendants.
The defendant(s) may file a motion for summary judgment by which they seek to have
your case dismissed. This comi is required to give a prose plaintiff fair notice of the
requirements of the summary judgment rule (Fed. R. Civ. P. 56). A motion for summary
judgment under Rule 56 will, if granted, end your case.
Rule 56 tells you what you must do in order to oppose a motion for summary judgment.
Generally, summary judgment must be granted when there is no genuine disputed material
fact--that is, if there is no real dispute about any fact that would affect the result of your case, the
party who asked for summmy judgment is entitled to judgment as a matter of law, which will end
your case. When a patiy you are suing makes a motion for summmy judgment that is properly
supported by declarations (or other sworn testimony), you cannot merely rely on what your
complaint says. Instead you must set out specific facts in declarations, depositions, answers to
interrogatories, or authenticated documents (as provided in Rule 56(e)) that contradict the facts

shown in the defendant's declarations and documents and show that there is a genuine disputed
material fact for trial. If you do not submit your own evidence in opposition, summary judgment,
if appropriate, may be entered against you. If summary judgment is granted, your case will be
dismissed and there will not be a trial.
