UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

PAUL WELDON,

Plaintiff,

v.

JERY DYER, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 1:13-cv-00540-LJO-SAB

ORDER CONTINUING HEARING ON 

DEFENDANTS’ MOTION TO COMPEL 

PLAINTIFF TO SUBMIT TO 

INDEPENDENT MEDICAL 

EXAMINATION

ECF NO. 88

On January 20, 2015, Defendants in this action filed a motion to compel Plaintiff to 

submit to an independent medical examination pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 35. 

(ECF No. 88.) On February 17, 2015, Plaintiff filed a motion for a protective order against any 

such independent medical examination. (ECF No. 95.)

Defendants’ motion is scheduled to be heard on March 11, 2015. Plaintiff’s motion is 

scheduled to be heard on March 25, 2015. Since the matters embraced in these motions are 

related, the Court will continue the hearing on Defendants’ motion and hear both on March 25, 

2015. At the hearing, the Court will also address whether a continuance of the deadline for 

expert discovery is warranted.

The Court further orders the parties to prepare a Joint Statement re Discovery 

Disagreement, as required by Local Rule 251. The parties’ Joint Statement re Discovery 

Disagreement shall be filed no later than March 18, 2015.
