IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

NATHANIEL O’SHEA MYERS,

Plaintiff, CV F 04 5166 OWW WMW P

vs. ORDER RE MOTION (DOC 44 )

AUGUSTO LOAIZA, et al.,

Defendants.

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se. Pending before the court is

Plaintiff’s motion for an extension of time. Plaintiff seeks an extension of time in order to

exhaust his available administrative remedies. Plaintiff is advised that he must have exhausted

his available administrative remedies prior to filing suit. The Court of Appeals has held that

District Courts are required under Prison Litigation Reform Act (PLRA) to dismiss actions

without prejudice where prisoner failed to exhaust administrative remedies prior to filing suit but

was in process of doing so when motion to dismiss was filed. McKinney v. Carey, 311 F.3d

1198 (9 Cir. 2002). th

Accordingly, Plaintiff’s motion for an extension of time in which to exhaust his

administrative remedies is denied.
