UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

MICHAEL WALTER BERGER,

Plaintiff, 

v. 

JEFFREY BEARD, 

Defendant. 

Case No. 15-cv-0681-TEH 

ORDER 

Re: Dkt. No. 31 

Plaintiff proceeds with a civil rights action. Defendant 

filed a motion for summary judgment and Plaintiff has still not 

filed a reply despite an extension being provided. 

Plaintiff was formerly a state prisoner but has been 

released. While in prison he was being aided by another inmate. 

That inmate, who is still incarcerated at Correctional Training 

Facility-Soledad, previously sought permission to be appointed as 

Plaintiff’s “next friend” and litigate this case on Plaintiff’s 

behalf. That request was denied in a prior order, yet the inmate 

has continued to file motions in this case on behalf of 

Plaintiff. The inmate has filed a motion (Docket No. 31), yet 

the motion contains frivolous and meritless requests which are 

DENIED. Plaintiff is provided one last extension to March 11, 

2016, to file an opposition to the summary judgment motion. No 

further extensions will be provided.
