UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

PETE REYNA,

Plaintiff,

v.

KINGS COUNTY JAIL MEDICAL, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 1:19-cv-01202-BAM (PC)

ORDER LIFTING STAY OF PROCEEDINGS

ORDER VACATING MARCH 4, 2020

SETTLEMENT CONFERENCE

(ECF No. 16)

Plaintiff Pete Reyna (“Plaintiff”) is a former pretrial detainee, currently a state prisoner,

proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. 

This action proceeds on Plaintiff’s first amended complaint against Defendant Siddiqi1for 

violation of the Fourteenth Amendment arising out of the delay in Plaintiff’s medical care.

On January 16, 2020, the Court identified this case as an appropriate case for the postscreening ADR (Alternative Dispute Resolution) project, and stayed the action to allow the 

parties an opportunity to settle their dispute before the discovery process begins. (ECF No. 16.) 

The Court’s order granted Defendant time to investigate and determine whether to opt out of the 

post-screening ADR project.

On February 6, 2020, Defendant filed a notice of opt out of early settlement conference. 

(ECF No. 17.) After review, the Court finds good cause to grant Defendant’s request. Therefore, 

the stay is lifted, and the March 4, 2020, settlement conference is vacated. This case is now ready 

to proceed.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The stay of this action, (ECF No. 16), is LIFTED;

2. The March 4, 2020 settlement conference is vacated; and

3. The parties may proceed with discovery pursuant to the discovery and scheduling 

order to be issued by separate order.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
