IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JOSEPH KEKOA MANIBUSAN,

Plaintiff,

 v.

DONALD SPECTER, STEVEN FAMA and

PRISON LAW OFFICE, 

Defendants. /

No. C 05-04868 WHA

NOTICE RE REMOVAL AND

MOTION TO DISMISS

The Court has considered defendants’ response to the order to show cause why the case

should not be remanded for lack of jurisdiction. Without prejudging any remand motions that

may be filed, the Court rules that summary remand of this case is not now appropriate. 

The hearing on the motion to dismiss is VACATED because plaintiff has no attorney and,

because he is incarcerated, will not be able to attend the hearing. If plaintiff retains an attorney

or is freed from prison before an order is issued on the motion, the Court will consider holding a

hearing. Plaintiff’s opposition brief remains due Thursday, January 26, 2006. If an opposition

is filed, defendants’ reply brief is due Thursday, February 2. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: January 23, 2006 WILLIAM ALSUP
