Case Number C 05-00426 JF 

ORDER1 ESTABLISHING BRIEFING

SCHEDULE

[re: docket no. 81, 83]

On November 14, 2006, the Court dismissed Plaintiff’s motion to file an amended

complaint without prejudice. The Court stated that “Plaintiffs [sic] must file any motion for

leave to file an amended complaint on or before December 20, 2006.” November 14th Order 9. 

On November 17, 2006, Plaintiff moved to stay the case pending appeal of his conviction

in state court or for an extension of time to file an amended complaint. On December 11, 2006,

Defendants Robert McGee and City of Pacific Grove (“the Defendants”) opposed the motion. 

Oral argument is scheduled for January 26, 2007. The Defendants assert that by filing the motion

to stay proceedings, Plaintiff has given himself an extension of time. Defendants ask the Court

ORDER ESTABLISHING BRIEFING SCHEDULE

(JFLC1)

to adopt the following schedule, assuming that the motion to stay proceedings is granted:

Plaintiff files motion for leave to amend: February 2, 2007

Defendants oppose motion for leave to amend: February 9, 2007

Hearing: February 16, 2007

The Court concludes that the motion to stay proceedings is appropriate for submission

without oral argument under Civ. L.R. 7-1(b). Plaintiff shall file any reply to Defendant’s

opposition by January 12, 2007. The Court expects to issue an order on this motion on or before

January 19, 2007. 

In the event that the Court denies the motion for a stay and the case proceeds, Plaintiff

shall file a motion for leave to file an amended complaint (along with a copy of the proposed

complaint) on or before February 9, 2007. Defendants shall file any opposition on or before

February 16, 2007. Plaintiff shall file any reply by February 23, 2007. The Court will hear oral

argument on March 2, 2006 at 9.00 a.m. The Court advises Plaintiff that failure to abide by this

schedule may lead to dismissal of the case. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

DATED: December 22, 2006
