IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

STEWART MANAGO,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-07-2290 LKK KJM P

vs.

BRAD WILLIAMS, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis with an action

filed pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. By order filed May 23, 2008, this action was stayed pending

the resolution of the motion to dismiss in a previously filed, parallel case, Civil Action No. 04-

1712. On November 26, 2008, while the stay was still in effect, the plaintiff filed an amended

complaint. The court lifted the stay on April 6, 2009, and has now determined on the current

record that the dismissal of the parallel action does not bar this action from proceeding. The

court in its discretion deems the amended complaint properly filed. 

The amended complaint states a cognizable claim for relief pursuant to 42 U.S.C.

§ 1983 and 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(b). If the allegations of the amended complaint are proven,

plaintiff has a reasonable opportunity to prevail on the merits of this action.
