ORDER GRANTING MOTION FOR DEFAULT JUDGMENT
THIS CAUSE is before the Court upon Plaintiffs' Motion for Entry of Default Judgment, filed herein on August 6, 2008. [DE-14]. The Court has carefully considered the Motion and is otherwise fully advised in the premises.
Plaintiffs filed the instant Motion for default judgment against Defendants. Returned Executed Summons indicate Defendant James R. Paisley, Jr., a/k/a James R. Kellier, a/k/a James R. Keller [DE-5], Defendant Atlantic Productions USA Corporation [DE-6], and Defendant Caribbean Transfer Agency, Limited [DE-7] were served on May 10, 2008. Defendants have failed to answer and a Clerk's Default was entered on June 25, 2008 [DE-10]. In an Order issued on July 29, 2008, this Court required Plaintiffs to file an Affidavit in Support of their Motion for Default Judgment (originally filed on July 25, 2008 [DE-12]). The Court also required Plaintiffs to serve the Motion, Affidavit, and Order on Defendants and required a response from Defendants on or before August 26, 2008. The Order indicated that a failure to respond would result in the immediate granting of the Motion for Default Judgment. Defendants have not responded or made any appearance in this case. Thus, the entry of default judgment is warranted in this case.
Accordingly, it is ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that Plaintiffs' Motion for Entry of Default Judgment as to Defendants [DE-14] is hereby GRANTED. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 58(a), a separate final judgment will be entered in this case.
DONE AND ORDERED in Chambers at Fort Lauderdale, Broward County, Florida.
