UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

On April 12, 2016, the Court stayed this matter so that a guardian ad litem or a next friend 

could be appointed for the minor plaintiffs under Rule 17. See Doc. No. 111. To date, there have 

been no further filings in this case. It has now been 5 weeks since this case was stayed. Given the 

passage of time, the Court finds that it is appropriate for Plaintiffs’ counsel to submit a status 

report. The status report should explain the efforts to find a guardian ad litem or a next friend for 

the minor plaintiffs, counsel’s best estimate for when a guardian ad litem or next friend can be in 

place, and any other information that counsel feels is pertinent.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiffs’ counsel shall submit a status 

report (as described above) no later than seven (7) days from service of this order.1

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: May 18, 2016
