UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JASON S. HARPER,

Plaintiff,

v.

CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF 

CORRECTIONS AND 

REHABILITATION, et al.,

Defendants.

CASE NO. 1:14-cv-00115-AWI-MJS (PC)

ORDER GRANTING MOTION TO MODIFY 

DISCOVERY AND SCHEDULING ORDER

(ECF No. 34)

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in this civil 

rights action brought pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The action proceeds against 

Defendants Curry, Huffman, and Rivero on Plaintiff’s First and Eighth Amendment 

claims. (ECF No. 12.)

On October 2, 2014, the Court issued a discovery and scheduling order setting 

January 2, 2015 as the deadline for filing motions for summary judgment on the basis of 

failure to exhaust administrative remedies. (ECF No. 28.) On December 31, 2014, 

Defendants filed a motion to modify the discovery and scheduling order and to extend 

the exhaustion motion filing deadline to January 12, 2015. (ECF No. 34.) Defendants 

then filed their exhaustion motion on January 12, 2015. (ECF No. 35.)
