Opinion
CIVIL ACTION NO. 2:13-CV-00009
04-22-2013
ORDER
Before the Court is "Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment" (D.E. 7). Pursuant to Local Rule 7.3, opposed motions will be submitted to the judge 21 days from filing. The Motion was filed on March 28, 2013 and its submission date was April 18, 2013.
Respondent has not filed a response to the Motion. Pursuant to Local Rule 7.4, failure to respond is taken as a representation of no opposition to the relief sought. The Court finds that Respondent's default demonstrates a failure to prosecute his claims subject to the Motion.
The Court has further reviewed the Motion on its merits and finds that Defendant The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. is entitled to judgment that the remaining claim regarding the home equity mortgage lien being void is barred by limitations pursuant to Priester v. JPMorgan Chase Bank, No. 12-40032, 2013 WL 539048 (5th Cir. Feb. 13, 2013).
For these reasons, the Motion for Summary Judgment (D.E. 7) is GRANTED.
