Damian L. Martinez Las Cruces, NM for Appellees MEMORANDUM OPINION HANISEE, Judge. {1} Plaintiff appeals from the district court’s order granting summary judgment in favor of Defendant and dismissing Plaintiff’s complaint with prejudice. We issued a notice of proposed summary disposition, proposing to reverse on grounds that Plaintiff presented a material factual dispute relative to her claim of abuse of process under the procedural impropriety theory. Plaintiff has filed a memorandum in support. Defendant has not filed any response to our notice, and the time for doing so has expired. “Failure to file a memorandum in opposition constitutes acceptance of the disposition proposed in the calendar notice” Frick v. Veazey, 1993-NMCA-119, ¶ 2, 116 N.M. 246, 861 P.2d 287. {2} For the reasons set forth in our notice, we reverse the district court’s order of summary judgment and remand for further proceedings. {3} IT IS SO ORDERED.
J. MILES HANISEE, Judge WE CONCUR: BRIANA H. ZAMORA, Judge ZACHARY A. IVES, Judge
