IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

KEITH A. SOMERS,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-05-0741 MCE EFB P

vs.

BPT COMMISSIONER M.

PEREZ, et al., ORDER

Defendants.

 /

Plaintiff is a state prisoner prosecuting this civil rights action without counsel. Pursuant

to the June 14, 2006, schedule, plaintiff’s pretrial statement is due March 2, 2007, defendants’

pretrial statement is due March 16, 2007, pretrial conference is set for March 23, 2007, and trial

is set for June 13, 2007. Because defendants’ motion for summary judgment is pending, the

above dates are vacated. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 16(b).

On January 8, 2007, plaintiff filed a motion for a preliminary injunction. It appears to the

court that plaintiff is complaining of inability to access the law library in order to research,

compose and file an opposition to defendants’ motion for summary judgment. Good cause

appearing, plaintiff is relieved of the obligation to file an opposition until the court rules on his

motion for a preliminary injunction. Defendants are directed to respond to plaintiff’s motion.
