ORDER
G. R. SMITH, Magistrate Judge.
Cannon Cochran Management Services, Inc. ("CCMS") moves to intervene as a plaintiff in this action to protect its alleged subrogation rights in $179,714.77 of workers' compensation benefits that it paid to plaintiff John Patrick Schreckengast. See Doc. 71 at 2; see also doc. 70-2 (proposed Complaint). The time provided by the Court's Local Rules for opposition to the motion has passed. By their silence, the parties indicate that they do not oppose it. See S.D. Ga. L. Civ. R. 7.5. CCMS's unrebutted motion shows that it is entitled to intervene as a matter of right. See doc. 71; see also Fed. R. Civ. P. 24(a)(2).
Accordingly, CCMS's motion (doc. 70) is GRANTED, and it is permitted to intervene in this action as a plaintiff. The Court deems CCMS's Complaint, as attached to its motion, filed and served on the parties (subject to objection, within 7 days of the date this Order is served, coupled by showing why formal service is required) and this action shall continue as scheduled.1 The parties shall have 21 days from unobjected-to service to serve their respective responsive pleadings (otherwise, 21 days from formal service).
SO ORDERED.
FootNotes
