ORDER

CAROLYN K. DELANEY, Magistrate Judge.

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with this civil rights action brought pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On January 14, 2016, defendants filed a motion for summary judgment pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 56. On February 5, 2016, plaintiff filed a motion for a sixty-day extension of time to file an opposition to defendants' motion, which this court granted. The time for filing his opposition has now expired, but plaintiff has not filed an opposition or otherwise responded to defendants' motion.

Local Rule 230(l) provides in part: "Failure of the responding party to file written opposition or to file a statement of no opposition may be deemed a waiver of any opposition to the granting of the motion . . . ." On December 20, 2012, plaintiff was advised of the requirements for filing an opposition to the motion and that failure to oppose such a motion may be deemed a waiver of opposition to the motion.

Local Rule 110 provides that failure to comply with the Local Rules "may be grounds for imposition of any and all sanctions authorized by statute or Rule or within the inherent power of the Court." In the order filed December 20, 2012, plaintiff was advised that failure to comply with the Local Rules may result in a recommendation that the action be dismissed.

Good cause appearing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that, within fourteen (14) days of the date of this order, plaintiff shall file an opposition, if any, to the motion for summary judgment filed on behalf of the defendants. Failure to file an opposition will be deemed as a statement of non-opposition and shall result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed pursuant Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b). Alternatively, if plaintiff no longer wishes to pursue this action he may file a request to voluntarily dismiss this case.
