Case No. 01-cv-01351-JST 

ORDER MODIFYING 

PARAGRAPH 4(C) OF MARCH 10, 2015 

TRANSITION PLAN ORDER

Re: ECF No. 3027

The parties have stipulated to modifying the March 10, 2015 Order Modifying 

Receivership Transition Plan, ECF No. 2841, “to permit counsel for Plaintiffs, upon a finding of 

good cause by the Receiver, to conduct site visits of institutions that have been delegated by the 

Receiver to the Secretary of the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation after more than a 

year has elapsed from the date of delegation.” ECF No. 3027 at 2. The Court has consulted with 

the Receiver, who has no objection to the proposed modification. The parties propose modifying 

paragraph 6 of the order, but the Court finds it more appropriate to include the proposed language 

in paragraph 4(c). Accordingly, it is hereby ordered that paragraph 4(c) of the March 10, 2015 

order is modified to read as follows:

c. Plaintiffs will maintain the ability to monitor care at the institution, 

including by conducting monitoring visits and accessing documentary evidence, 

for a one-year period following delegation. Monitoring by Plaintiffs shall cease 

after one year unless the Receiver revokes the delegation of authority or Plaintiffs 

bring a successful motion for revocation. However, Plaintiffs shall be able to 

conduct a site visit, which shall include physical access and relevant documents, 

after Plaintiffs’ monitoring has ceased at a particular institution, upon notice to
