Defendants.

ORDER

Plaintiff is a state prisoner, proceeding without counsel, with a civil rights action pursuant 

to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On July 19, 2016, defendants filed a summary judgment motion on the 

grounds that plaintiff failed to exhaust administrative remedies. (ECF No. 26.) Plaintiff did not 

file an opposition. Accordingly, the undersigned has separately ordered plaintiff to show cause 

why defendants’ motion should not be granted.

On July 28, 2016, defendants filed a motion to modify the scheduling order. (ECF No. 

27.) Pursuant to the February 3, 2016, scheduling order, the dispositive motion cut-off date was 

August 5, 1016. (ECF No. 19.) In the motion to modify the scheduling order, defendants state 

that they intend to file a motion for summary judgment regarding the merits of plaintiff’s claims 

in the event that their pending summary judgment motion, alleging failure to exhaust 

administrative remedies, is denied. Defendants request that the dispositive motion deadline be 

extended to December 2, 2016, to permit the issue of exhaustion to be decided before defendants
