11 MARK ANTHONY BROWN, No. 2:22-cv-2118 KJN P
12 Plaintiff,
13 v. ORDER
14 B. BUGGE, et al.,
15 Defendants.
16
17 On January 11, 2024, defendants filed a motion for summary judgment pursuant to
18 Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 56. Plaintiff did not oppose the motion.
19 Local Rule 230(l) provides in part: “Failure of the responding party to file written
20 opposition or to file a statement of no opposition may be deemed a waiver of any opposition to
21 the granting of the motion . . . .” Id. On June 29, 2023, plaintiff was advised of the requirements
22 for filing an opposition to a motion and that failure to oppose such a motion may be deemed a
23 waiver of opposition to the motion. See Rand v. Rowland, 154 F.3d 952, 957 (9th Cir. 1998) (en
24 banc), and Klingele v. Eikenberry, 849 F.2d 409, 411-12 (9th Cir. 1988). (ECF No. 22.)
25 Local Rule 110 provides that failure to comply with the Local Rules “may be grounds for
26 imposition of any and all sanctions authorized by statute or Rule or within the inherent power of
27 the Court.” Id. Failure to comply with the Local Rules may result in a recommendation that the
28 action be dismissed.
1 Finally, Rule 41(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure provides:
2 Involuntary Dismissal; Effect. If the plaintiff fails to prosecute or
to comply with these rules or a court order, a defendant may move to
3 dismiss the action or any claim against it. Unless the dismissal order
states otherwise, a dismissal under this subdivision (b) and any
4 dismissal not under this rule--except one for lack of jurisdiction,
improper venue, or failure to join a party under Rule 19--operates as
5 an adjudication on the merits.
6 | Id.
7 Good cause appearing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that, within thirty days from the date
8 | of this order, plaintiff shall file an opposition, if any, to the motion for summary judgment.
9 || Failure to file an opposition will be deemed as consent to have the: (a) action dismissed for lack
10 || of prosecution; and (b) action dismissed based on plaintiffs failure to comply with these rules
11 || andacourt order. Said failure shall result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed
12 || pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b).
