these conditions. Id. ¶¶ 124, 177. From June 2017 to January 2018, Ms. Dumpson lost an
unhealthy amount of weight—more than 15% of her body weight—from the mental trauma
stemming from the incident. Id. ¶ 121.
On April 30, 2018, Ms. Dumpson filed a Complaint against Messrs. Ade and
Anglin, Moonbase Holdings, and James McCarty. 4 Compl. [Dkt. 1]. Moonbase Holdings and
Messrs. Ade and Anglin failed to respond to the Complaint and the Clerk of Court entered
default against each Defendant. See Clerk’s Entry of Default as to Brian Andrew Ade [Dkt. 10];
Clerk’s Entry of Default as to Moonbase Holdings, LLC [Dkt. 20]; Clerk’s Entry of Default as to
Andrew Anglin [Dkt. 28].
Ms. Dumpson now moves for default judgment against Messrs. Anglin and Ade
and Moonbase Holdings for violations of the District of Columbia Human Rights Act of 1977
(DCHRA), D.C. Code § 2-1401.01 et seq., and intentional infliction of emotional distress. See
Mot. for Default J. (Mot.) [Dkt. 35]; Mem. in Supp. of Mot. for Default. J. (Mem.) [Dkt. 35-1].
Ms. Dumpson asks the Court to find Defendants jointly and severally liable for her injuries and
requests compensatory damages, punitive damages, attorneys’ fees, and injunctive relief. Mot. at
1-2. Defendants have not responded to Ms. Dumpson’s Motion for Default Judgment or the
Court’s Order to Show Cause why default judgment should not be entered. See Order to Show
Cause [Dkt. 39]. The motion is ripe for review.
