REMON A. SHIELDS,

Plaintiff,

v.

GREGORY J. AHERN, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No.16-cv-00331-JD 

ORDER VACATING MOTION TO 

DISMISS WITHOUT PREJUDICE

Re: Dkt. Nos. 9, 16

Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, proceeds with a civil rights action. Defendants 

previously filed a motion to dismiss. However, defendants failed to file notice pursuant to Wyatt 

v. Terhune, 315 F.3d 1108 (9th Cir. 2003), because the Court was requested to consider matters 

outside the pleadings. Defendants have filed a request to refile the motion with the appropriate 

Wyatt notice. Plaintiff has not filed an opposition but will be provided another opportunity. The 

Court hereby orders as follows:

1. The motion to dismiss (Docket No. 9) is DISMISSED without prejudice. The motion 

to refile (Docket No. 16) is GRANTED.

2. Within fourteen (14) days, defendants shall refile the motion to dismiss and serve the 

motion and Wyatt notice and notice pursuant to Rand v. Rowland, 154 F.3d 952 (9th Cir. 1988), on 

plaintiff. Plaintiff shall file an opposition with twenty-eight (28) days upon service of the motion. 

Failure to file an opposition may result in dismissal of this action.

NOTICE -- WARNING (SUMMARY JUDGMENT)

If defendants move for summary judgment, they are seeking to have your case dismissed. 

A motion for summary judgment under Rule 56 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure will, if 

granted, end your case.

Rule 56 tells you what you must do in order to oppose a motion for summary judgment. 

Generally, summary judgment must be granted when there is no genuine issue of material fact--

that is, if there is no real dispute about any fact that would affect the result of your case, the party 

who asked for summary judgment is entitled to judgment as a matter of law, which will end your 

case. When a party you are suing makes a motion for summary judgment that is properly 

supported by declarations (or other sworn testimony), you cannot simply rely on what your 

complaint says. Instead, you must set out specific facts in declarations, depositions, answers to 

interrogatories, or authenticated documents, as provided in Rule 56(e), that contradict the facts 

shown in the defendant’s declarations and documents and show that there is a genuine issue of 

material fact for trial. If you do not submit your own evidence in opposition, summary judgment, 

if appropriate, may be entered against you. If summary judgment is granted, your case will be 

dismissed and there will be no trial. 

NOTICE -- WARNING (EXHAUSTION)

If defendants file a motion for summary judgment for failure to exhaust, they are seeking 

to have your case dismissed. If the motion is granted it will end your case.

You have the right to present any evidence you may have which tends to show that you did 

exhaust your administrative remedies. Such evidence may be in the form of declarations 

(statements signed under penalty of perjury) or authenticated documents, that is, documents 

accompanied by a declaration showing where they came from and why they are authentic, or other 

sworn papers, such as answers to interrogatories or depositions. 

If defendants file a motion for summary judgment for failure to exhaust and it is granted, 

your case will be dismissed and there will be no trial.
