No. CIV 05-1697-PHX-SRB (DKD)

ORDER

Pending before the Court are Plaintiff's Motion to Dismiss (Doc. #11), Motion to Stay

Proceedings (Doc. #13), and Motion to Quash Motion to Dismiss (Doc. #14). Plaintiff filed his

Complaint (Doc. #1) on June 6, 2005. The complaint was subsequently screened on July 15,

2005, and Defendants Troab and Kush were directed for file an Answer, and Defendant

Maricopa County Sheriff's Office was dismissed. Defendants Troab and Kush waived service

of the complaint and summons on August 12, 2005 and filed their Answer on October 11, 2005

(Doc. #12). 

Plaintiff asserts in his Motion to Dismiss that he was not aware that he needed to file a

"Notice of Claim" in state court in order to proceed with his Complaint in District Court. In his

Motion to Stay, he alleges that he has mailed such a notice to Defendants, and requests that the

matter be stayed until Defendants "respond" to his claim. In his Motion to Quash, he states that

he was not advised that he could stay the proceeding while he served Defendants the notice.

He therefore requests that his Motion to Dismiss be withdrawn.
