ORDER REQUIRING DEFENDANTS TO

RESPOND TO PLAINTIFF’S MOTION TO

COMPEL (ECF No. 153)

ORDER ADDRESSING PLAINTIFF’S

REQUEST FOR ORDER SETTING DEADLINE

TO RESPOND (ECF No. 154)

TWENTY-DAY DEADLINE

Plaintiff George H. Robinson (“Plaintiff”) is a state prisoner proceeding pro se in this civil

rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. This action is proceeding on the complaint, filed May

13, 2008, against Defendants David, Miranda, Melo, Garcia, Mendoza, Martinez, and Masiel for use

of excessive force, and Defendants Adams and Ruiz for failing to protect Plaintiff in violation of the

Eighth Amendment; and against Defendants Martinez, David, Miranda, and Garcia for assault and

battery in violation of state law. 

On November 2, 2012, Plaintiff filed a motion to compel asserting the Defendants have failed

to respond to his request for interrogatories. Defendants have failed to file an opposition or

statement of non-opposition to the motions. Local Rule 230(l). Defendants shall have twenty days

in which to respond to the motion to compel.

Plaintiff also requests an order setting deadlines for his to reply to Defendant’s opposition

to his motions. (ECF No. 154.) Local Rule 230(l) provides that “the moving party may, not more

than seven (7) days after the opposition is served, serve and file a reply to the opposition.” Plaintiff

has filed a reply to the opposition to the motion to compel and sanctions filed October 29, 2012. 

Plaintiff requests thirty days in which to reply to any opposition to the motion to compel. Since the

sole issue will be whether Defendants served a response or not, Plaintiff shall have fourteen days to

file his reply to the opposition.

Accordingly, it is HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Defendants shall file an opposition or a statement of non-opposition to Plaintiff’s

motion to compel within twenty (20) days from the date of service of this order;

2. Plaintiff shall file a reply within fourteen (14) days from the date of service of

Defendants’ opposition; and

3. Failure to comply with this order may result in the imposition of sanctions deemed

appropriate by the Court. Local Rule 210.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
