ORDER DENYING MOTIONS TO

COMPEL AS PREMATURE

[DOC # 192, 197]

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis with a civil rights action

pursuant to 42 U.S.C. section 1983. On October 1, 2007, plaintiff filed a motion to compel

compliance with his discovery requests. On October 15, 2007, plaintiff filed a substantially similar

motion. On October 9, 2007 (the same day plaintiff’s second motion was served), defendants filed

an opposition to the motion in which they represent that responses to plaintiff’s first request for

documents were served on October 9, 2007. Defendants further point out that the Court granted an

extension of time for defendants to respond to plaintiff’s first set of interrogatories until October 26,

2007.
