ORDER DENYING DEFENDANT’S THIRD 

MOTION TO MODIFY DISCOVERY AND

Plaintiff Kyree Breedlove (“Plaintiff”) is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma 

pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. This action proceeds against 

Defendant Figueroa for excessive force in violation of the Eighth Amendment.

Pursuant to the Court’s February 6, 2020 Discovery and Scheduling Order, July 30, 2020

October 8, 2020 order granting Defendant’s second motion to modify discovery and scheduling

administrative remedies, is January 31, 2021. (ECF Nos. 25, 27, 29.) 

Currently before the Court is Defendant’s motion to modify discovery and scheduling 

order nunc pro tunc, effectively Defendant’s third motion to modify the discovery and scheduling 

order, filed October 16, 2020. (ECF No. 30.) Defendant has also filed a notice of withdrawal of 

Defendant’s October 6, 2020 second motion to modify the discovery and scheduling order, (ECF 

No. 28). (ECF No. 31.) Although Plaintiff has not had an opportunity to respond to the motion, 

the Court finds a response unnecessary and the motion is deemed submitted. Local Rule 230(l).

Defendant’s renewed motion and notice of withdrawal of the October 6, 2020 motion, are 

premised on the assertion that the Court has not yet issued a ruling on the October 6, 2020 motion 

to modify the discovery and dispositive deadlines in this action. This is incorrect. The Court 

granted the October 6, 2020 motion on October 8, 2020. (ECF No. 29.) Notice was 

electronically mailed to defense counsel the same date.

As Defendant is seeking extensions of the discovery and dispositive deadlines that are 

identical to those already granted, the Court denies the third motion to modify the discovery and 

scheduling order as moot. Further, Defendant’s notice of withdrawal of the October 6, 2020 

motion is disregarded, as the motion has already been resolved. Counsel is cautioned to avoid 

filing such duplicative motions in the future.

Based on the foregoing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED as follows:

1. Defendant’s third motion to modify the discovery and scheduling order, (ECF No. 30), is

DENIED as moot;

2. Defendant’s notice of withdrawal of Defendant’s motion to modify discovery and 

scheduling order, (ECF No. 31), is DISREGARDED;

3. Pursuant to the Court’s October 8, 2020 order granting Defendant’s second motion to 

modify the discovery and scheduling order;

a. The deadline for completion of all discovery remains November 20, 2020; and

b. The deadline for filing all dispositive motions, including motions for summary 

judgment for failure to exhaust administrative remedies, remains January 31, 

2021; and
