Opinion of the Court

This cause comes before the Court upon Plaintiff’s Motion to Compel Responses to Plaintiff’s Class Certification and Damages Discovery (Doc. 21). Defendants have not appeared in this litigation, despite being properly served (Docs. 11–13). As a result, Plaintiff moved for entry of a Clerk’s default, and the Clerk entered defaults against Defendants on May 15, 2023 (Docs. 15–17). Plaintiff then moved for leave of court to conduct discovery on the issues of class certification and damages prior to seeking a final default judgment (Doc. 18), which this Court granted (Doc. 19). Now, Plaintiff moves for an order compelling Defendants to respond to Plaintiff’s discovery requests (Doc. 21). Defendants have not responded to the motion and the time to do so has expired.1 See L.R. 3.01(c), M.D. Fla. (party opposing motion must file response in opposition within 14 days after service). Therefore, the motion is deemed unopposed. See Legends Collision Ctr., LLC v. State Farm Mut. Auto. Ins. Co., No. 6:14-cv-6006-ORL-31TBS, 2016 WL 3406409, at
