IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

OTMAR WITTINE,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-03-1676 LKK EFB P

vs.

F. T. DESCHLER, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

Plaintiff is a prisoner without counsel suing for alleged civil rights violations. See 42

U.S.C. § 1983. On November 27, 2003, the court granted defendants’ motion to modify the

scheduling order, and informed the parties that discovery would close on March 20, 2007, and

that dispositive motions must be filed no later than June 20, 2007. Those dates have passed, and

neither party has filed dispositive motions. Indeed, there has been no activity in this case. It

thus appears that the parties are prepared to enter into the pretrial phase of this litigation.

Accordingly, it hereby is ORDERED that:

1. Within 30 days of the date of this order, plaintiff shall file a pretrial statement that

conforms to the requirements of Local Rule 16-281. In addition, plaintiff is advised to follow

the directions contained in the July 28, 2006, scheduling order, especially as they pertain to

ensuring the presence of witnesses at trial; and

the court will issue a pretrial order and set the matter for trial.

Dated: December 3, 2007.
