UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

VINCENT C. BRUCE,

Plaintiff,

v.

JEANNE WOODFORD, et al.,

Defendants.

 /

CASE NO. 1:07-cv-00269 AWI DLB PC

ORDER VACATING PREVIOUS ORDER

(Docs. 39)

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se in this civil rights action. On September 9,

2009, this Court issued an order granting Plaintiff’s request for service by the United States Marshal

pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(c)(3). (Doc. 39.) However, on September 4, 2009, defendants Adams,

Clark, Frauenheim, Hense, Lloren, Schottgen, Tripp and Wan (“defendants”) filed a Rule 12(b)(6)

motion to dismiss. 

In light of the fact that defendants have appeared in this action, the Court HEREBY

VACATES its order granting service of the summons and complaint by the United States Marshal.

Plaintiff is ordered to file a response to the motion to dismiss within twenty (20) days of

service of this order. Failure to file a response may result in a recommendation that this action be

dismissed for failure to obey a court order.

IT IS SO ORDERED. 

Dated: September 16, 2009 /s/ Dennis L. Beck
