UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

CESAR ENCISO,

Plaintiff,

v.

DR. MOON, et al.,

Defendants.

_____________________________________/

Case No. 1:12-cv-00924-LJO-SKO (PC)

ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANTS’ 

REQUEST FOR MODIFICATION OF THE 

SCHEDULING ORDER AND GRANTING 

DEFENDANTS THIRTY DAYS WITHIN 

WHICH TO FILE A MOTION TO DISMISS 

FOR FAILURE TO EXHAUST

(Doc. 30)

Plaintiff Cesar Enciso, a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis, filed this 

civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 on June 7, 2012. This action is proceeding against 

Defendants Moon, Alcantar,

1

Silva, Doe 1, and Doe 3 for violation of the Eighth Amendment of 

the United States Constitution and for negligence under California law. Plaintiff’s claims arise out 

of the denial of adequate medical treatment in 2010 and 2011 at North Kern State Prison in 

Delano, California.

On December 23, 2013, Defendants Moon, Alcantar, and Silva filed a motion seeking to 

modify the scheduling order to allow them thirty days within which to file a motion to dismiss for 

failure to exhaust. 42 U.S.C. § 1997e(a); Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b). Plaintiff did not oppose the 

motion. Local Rule 230(l).

The Court has considered Defendants’ request. Given the lack of opposition and in interest 

of justice and the conservation of governmental resources, Defendants’ motion to modify the 

scheduling order is GRANTED, and Defendants have thirty (30) days from the date of service of 

this order within which to file a motion to dismiss for failure to exhaust the available 

administrative remedies. Fed. R. Civ. P. 16(b)(4).

IT IS SO ORDERED.
