Green v. Revell
September 12, 2007
NATHANIEL GREEN, PETITIONER,
v.
SARAH M. REVELL, ET AL., RESPONDENTS.
The opinion of the court was delivered by: Proud, Magistrate Judge
Before the Court is petitioner Green's motion for default judgment in light of respondent's failure to file a timely response to the petition for writ of habeas corpus. (Doc. 9).
A review of the record reveals that default has never been entered; therefore, the subject motion is procedurally premature. See Fed.R.Civ.P. 55. Moreover, the Court previously extended the deadline for respondent's response, and respondent has now filed a response. (Docs. 15 and 16).
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the subject motion is DENIED AS PREMATURE.
CLIFFORD J. PROUD U. S. MAGISTRATE JUDGE
