UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JOHN WESLEY WILLIAMS,

Plaintiff,

v.

BEER, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 1:21-cv-00155-NONE-EPG (PC)

ORDER GRANTING IN PART 

DEFENDANTS’ REQUEST FOR 

EXTENSION OF TIME TO RESPOND TO 

PLAINTIFF’S COMPLAINT AND TO 

SUBMIT DISCOVERY AND SCHEDULING 

STATEMENT

(ECF No. 39)

On September 3, 2021, Defendants requested “that the Court extend the time for them to 

respond to Plaintiff’s operative complaint and to submit a discovery and scheduling statement 

until after the Court rules on Defendants’ pending motion to stay this matter and screens 

Plaintiff’s pending amended complaint.” (ECF No. 39, p. 1).

Given Plaintiff’s pending motion for leave to amend and Defendants’ pending motion to 

stay, the Court finds good cause to grant Defendants’ request in part. Defendants do not need to 

respond to Plaintiff’s original complaint or file a discovery and scheduling statement at this time.
