Order Granting Motions to Dismiss Claims against Defendants McLane, Wise, and Almeyda-Perez
[ECF Nos. 58, 59, 66]
JENNIFER DORSEY, District Judge.
Pro se plaintiff Sidney T. Van Assche, a former prisoner of the Nevada Department of Corrections, brings this civil-rights action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Defendants Jim McLane and Claude Wise move to dismiss the claims against them, and Defendant Julian Almeyda-Perez, M.D. joins in McLane's motion.1 Van Assche's deadline to respond to these motions passed without opposition or a request to extend the deadline to file one. Local Rule 7-2(d) provides that "[t]he failure of an opposing party to file points and authorities in response to any motion, except a motion under Fed. R. Civ. P. 56 or a motion for attorney's fees, constitutes a consent to the granting of the motion." I apply this rule and construe Van Assche's silence as consent to granting these motions. Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that these motions to dismiss [ECF Nos. 58, 59, 66] are GRANTED. All claims against defendants Jim McLane, Claude Wise, and Julian Almeyda-Perez, M.D. are DISMISSED.
