Re: Caggedge v. Yurkie, Case N0. 1:07-cv-846-GMS-MPT AL
Dear Chief Judge Sleet:
I write on behalf of defendant David Yurkie ("Mr. Yurl James Coppedge’s Request for Default Judgment which was filed on February 8, 2008 (D.I. 10.)
Entry of default judgment would not be appropriate in this matter as Mr. Yurkie complied with
the Court’s rules. Mr. Yurkie was served with the complaint in this action on January 14, 2008.
(D.I. 6). His response was thus due twenty days later — or February 3, 2008. Fed. R. Civ. P. 12.
A February 3, however, was a Sunday. Thus, Mr. Yurkie’s response was due February 4, 2008.
The Court’s docket, itself, evidenced this requirement. (See D.I. 6). Mr. Yurkie did, in fact, file
his response on February 4, 2008. (D.I. 8 and 9).
Mr. Yurkie sincerely hopes that Mr. Coppedge will, upon receipt of this letter, withdraw
his Request and not cause Mr. Yurkie to expend his valuable resources defending against it. If
he fails to do so, Mr. Yurkie respectfully requests that the Request should be denied. As always, 9
counsel remains available at the Cou1t’s convenience if Your Honor has any questions. g
