Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with a civil rights action pursuant to

42 U.S.C. § 1983. On May 23, 2006, plaintiff filed a request for an extension of time to file

be granted. The court will, by this order, reset the dates for filing pretrial statements and for

pretrial conference. The date for jury trial will be reset, as appropriate, by subsequent court

order.

In accordance with the above, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Plaintiff’s May 23, 2006 request for an extension of time is granted;

2. Plaintiff shall file and serve his pretrial statement and any motions necessary to

obtain the attendance of witnesses at trial on or before October 27, 2006. Defendants shall file
