UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ANDREW R. LOPEZ,

Plaintiff,

v.

MATHEW CATE, et al.,

Defendants.

_____________________________________/

Case No. 1:10-cv-01773-AWI-SKO (PC)

ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANTS’ 

MOTION TO RESCHEDULE 

EVIDENTIARY HEARING, VACATING 

HEARING, AND REQUIRING 

DEFENDANTS TO CONTACT PLAINTIFF 

AND THE COURT TO RESCHEDULE THE 

HEARING

(Doc. 144)

TWENTY-DAY DEADLINE

This case is currently set for an evidentiary hearing on October 22, 2015, at 9:00 a.m. to 

resolve disputed issues of fact regarding administrative exhaustion. 42 U.S.C. § 1997e(a); Fed. R. 

Civ. P. 56; Williams v. Paramo, 775 F.3d 1182, 1191-92 (9th Cir. 2015); Albino v. Baca, 747 F.3d 

1162, 1170 (9th Cir. 2014) (en banc). On October 2, 2015, Defendants filed a motion to 

reschedule the evidentiary hearing due to a witness’s unavailability. An attached letter from 

Plaintiff evidences his non-opposition to rescheduling the hearing given his upcoming jury trial on 

October 13, 2015, in the Sacramento Division of the Eastern District of California.

Good cause having been shown, Fed. R. Civ. P. 16(b)(4), the Court HEREBY ORDERS as 

follows:

1. Defendants’ motion to reschedule the evidentiary hearing is GRANTED;

2. The evidentiary hearing set for October 22, 2015, at 9:00 a.m. is VACATED;
