IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

KEVIN KING,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-04-2246 ALA P

vs.

CALIFORNIA DEPT. OF CORRECTIONS,

et al., 

Defendants. ORDER

 /

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

civil rights action under 42 U.S.C.§ 1983. On April 24, 2007, defendants filed a motion to

compel plaintiff’s deposition. On July 13, 2007, the court had not yet ruled on defendants

motion to compel and defendants filed a motion to vacate the current scheduling order which

permitted discovery until September 28, 2007. On July 24, 2007, this court granted defendants

motion to compel. However, the court did not address the defendants motion to vacate the

scheduling order.

In light of the potential time constraints defendants may face in seeking plaintiff’s

deposition, the court will extend the deadline for discovery 30 days. However, the court will not

vacate the entire scheduling order.
