order Order on Motion to Dismiss/Lack of Jurisdiction Tue 12/06 10:54 AM
MINUTE ORDER: On October 28, 2022, Defendants filed a8 Motion to Dismiss. On October 31, 2022, the Court entered a10 Fox Order ordering Plaintiffs to respond by November 14, 2022, and if not, advising them that the Court may treat Defendants' motion as conceded and dismiss the case. A copy of that order was sent to Plaintiffs' addresses of record. Three weeks past that deadline, Plaintiffs have not opposed the motion or requested additional time to do so. Indeed, Plaintiffs have filed nothing on the docket in over two months. Thus, the Court will treat Defendants' motion as conceded. See LCvR 7(b) ("Within 14 days of the date of service [of a motion] or at such other time as the Court may direct, an opposing party shall serve and file a memorandum of points and authorities in opposition to the motion. If such a memorandum is not filed within the prescribed time, the Court may treat the motion as conceded."). Therefore, it is hereby ORDERED that Defendants'8 Motion to Dismiss is GRANTED and this case is DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE. The Clerk of Court is directed to close the case. Signed by Judge Timothy J. Kelly on 12/6/2022. (lctjk1)

order Order on Motion for CM/ECF Password Thu 09/01 12:15 PM
MINUTE ORDER denying without prejudice Plaintiffs'2 Motion to Use Electronic Case Filing (E-File). Local Civil Rule 5.4(b)(2) requires a pro se party requesting a CM/ECF username and password to file a motion entitled "Motion for CM/ECF User Name and Password," describing the party's access to the internet, confirming the capacity to file documents and receive filings electronically on a regular basis, and certifying that he or she either has successfully completed the entire Clerk's Office online tutorial or has been permitted to file electronically in other federal courts. See LCvR 5.4(b)(2). Here, Plaintiffs do not title their motion correctly. And they do not specifically address the requirements outlined above. All they say is that they "confirm that they meet all the system/other requirements needed to file and receive electronic documents," and that they "have set up an active PACER account." Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that Plaintiffs'2 motion is DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE. Signed by Judge Timothy J. Kelly on 9/1/2022. (lctjk1)
