UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

RICHARD CASITY,

Plaintiff,

v.

B. WHEELER, 

Defendant.

No. 2:24-cv-1097 DC CSK P

ORDER GRANTING EXTENSION OF TIME 

and ORDER EXTENDING STAY

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with a civil rights action pursuant to 

42 U.S.C. § 1983. On August 13, 2024, this action was stayed for 120 days pending referral to 

the Post-Screening ADR project. (ECF No. 16.) On November 22, 2024, defendant filed a first 

motion for extension of time to file a responsive pleading. (ECF No. 19.) Defendant asks that the 

deadline be extended to thirty days after the January 23, 2025 settlement conference currently set 

in this matter.

Good cause appearing, defendant’s motion for extension of time is granted. The current 

stay of this action expires on December 11, 2024, prior to the January 23, 2025 settlement 

conference. Thus, the stay of this action is extended through January 23, 2025. Thirty days after 

January 24, 2025, falls on a Sunday; therefore, if the case does not settle, defendant shall file a 

responsive pleading on or before February 24, 2025, the following Monday. Fed. R. Civ. P. 

6(a)(1)(C).
