UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JOHNNY LEE HOWZE,

Plaintiff,

v.

CDC & R, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 2:14-cv-2069 GEB CKD P

ORDER

Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed an opposition to defendants’ Rule 

12(b)(6) motion to dismiss (ECF No. 31), but has not filed an opposition to defendant’s motion 

for summary judgment for failure to exhaust administrative remedies (see ECF No. 32 at 1). 

Plaintiff has filed a “Motion under Local Rule 144” seeking a thirty-day extension of time 

to oppose summary judgment. (ECF No. 34.) Good cause appearing, this request will be granted.

Plaintiff has also filed a “Motion under Rule 15 of the F.RC.P.” seeking to supplement his 

previously-filed opposition with an attached declaration. (ECF Nos. 35 & 36.) The court will 

grant this motion; however, as no further briefing on the motion to dismiss is necessary, the court 

will not consider future supplements.

Good cause appearing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT: 

1. Plaintiff’s March 4, 2015 motion (ECF No. 34) is granted; 

2. Plaintiff is granted thirty days from the date of this order to file an opposition to
