Now pending before the Court are (1) Plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment, (2)

Plaintiff’s motion for continuation, and (3) Plaintiff’s motion for leave to amend the

motion for summary judgment prematurely. Therefore, the Court hereby DENIES the

motion for summary judgment without prejudice and DISMISSES the motion for

continuation as moot. Plaintiff’s motion for leave to amend his complaint is hereby

GRANTED. Once Plaintiff has filed an amended complaint, has retained any necessary

witnesses, and has gathered evidence in support of his claims, Plaintiff may file another

motion for summary judgment.

The parties are hereby ordered to appear before the Court for a case management

conference on November 17, 2006, at 10:00 a.m. in Courtroom 8, on the 19th Floor at 450
