Pending before the Court is the Motion to Remand (ECF No. 2) filed by Plaintiff Resource Transition Consultants, LLC ("RTC"). No response or opposition has been filed. For the reasons discussed below, the Motion to Remand is GRANTED.
Local Rule 7-2(d) provides that failure to file points and authorities in opposition to a motion constitutes a consent that the motion be granted. Abbott v. United Venture Capitol, Inc., 718 F. Supp. 828, 831 (D. Nev. 1989). It has been said these local rules, no less than the federal rules or acts of Congress, have the force of law. United States v. Hvass, 355 U.S. 570, 574-575 (1958); Weil v. Neary, 278 U.S. 160, 169 (1929); Marshall v. Gates, 44 F.3d 722, 723 (9th Cir. 1995). Accordingly, the parties have consented to the Motion.
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that that the Motion to Remand (ECF No. 2) is GRANTED and this case is hereby remanded to the Eighth Judicial District Court. The Clerk of the Court shall remand this case back to state court and thereafter close this Court's case.
DATED this 11th day of September, 2015.
