UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

Plaintiff C. Dwayne Gilmore is appearing pro se and in forma pauperis in this civil rights 

action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. This action is proceeding against Defendants Lockard, Lopez, 

and Hightower for excessive force in violation of the Eighth Amendment. All parties have consented 

to the jurisdiction of a United States Magistrate Judge. (ECF Nos. 8, 199.) 

Currently before the Court is Plaintiff’s motion to enforce order and modify trial scheduling 

order, filed on January 20, 2017. (ECF No. 222.) In that motion, Plaintiff argues that Defendants have 

not served him with their exhibits by the January 3, 2017 deadline, as required by the Court’s trial 

scheduling order. Plaintiff argues that he has been prejudiced by this failure as the January 17, 2017 

deadline for motions in limine has passed, but he was unable to review Defendants’ proposed trial 

exhibits and prepare challenges to their admissibility in any motions in limine. Plaintiff seeks to 

modify the trial scheduling order to ensure he has an opportunity to file and serve a motion in limine, 

and also seeks to modify the trial date and telephonic motions in limine hearing.

Due to the issues raised by Plaintiff, the Court finds it necessary to order an expedited response 

by Defendants to Plaintiff’s allegations that they have not served him with their trial exhibits as 

required by the trial scheduling order dated October 4, 2016. (ECF No. 205, pp. 9-10 (“No later than 

January 3, 2017, the parties shall exchange their proposed exhibits to allow for the parties to file 

objections to be addressed at the motion in limine hearing on February 13, 2017.”) (emphasis in 

original).) 

Accordingly, it is HEREBY ORDERED that Defendants shall file a response to Plaintiff’s motion

to enforce order and modify trial scheduling order on or before Friday, January 27, 2017 at noon.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: January 25, 2017
