ORDER
Currently before the Court is Plaintiff's Motion for a Hearing to Determine the Damages related to the Entry of Default Judgment Against Defendant Pat Van Lingen (Doc. 46), filed pursuant to Rule 55(b)(2) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.
Plaintiff suffered emotional distress as a result of injuries by Defendant's assault, battery, and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

Accordingly, pursuant to Rule 55(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, this Court has scheduled a hearing to determine the appropriate damages in the above referenced case so that a default judgment may be entered against Defendant Pat Van Lingen. Therefore,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED GRANTING Plaintiff's Motion for a Hearing to Determine the Damages related to the Entry of Default Judgment Against Defendant Pat Van Lingen. (Doc. 46.)
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that an Evidentiary Hearing has been scheduled for Tuesday, December 9, at 11:00 a.m., in Courtroom 601.
