UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MARCUS R. WILLIAMS,

Plaintiff,

v.

M. YARBOROUGH, et al.,

Defendants.

 /

CASE NO. 1:02-CV-5094-REC-SMS-P

ORDER STRIKING MOTION FOR

SUMMARY JUDGMENT

(Doc. 86)

Plaintiff Marcus R. Williams (“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 is proceeding on

plaintiff’s second amended complaint, filed August 21, 2003, against defendants Witcher and

Yarborough on plaintiff’s Eighth Amendment denial of exercise claim, and against defendant

Yarborough on plaintiff’s equal protection claim. On December 16, 2005, defendants Yarborough

and Witcher (“defendants”) filed a motion for summary judgment. 

The deadline for filing pretrial dispositive motions was October 19, 2005. Neither plaintiff

nor defendants filed a dispositive motion and this matter was set for trial by order filed November

4, 2005. Although defendants moved for leave to file a motion for summary judgment on or before

December 16, 2005, their request is still pending before the court. Until defendants’ request is

addressed by the court, defendants may not file a late motion for summary judgment. If defendants

are granted leave of court, defendants may at that time file their motion. If a ruling is made in

defendants’ favor, the court will set a new deadline.
