FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

KEITH ARTHUR CHAMBERS,

Plaintiff, CV F 03 5266 AWI WMW P

vs. ORDER RE MOTION (DOC 59)

C/O EVANS, et al.,

Defendants.

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se. Plaintiff seeks relief pursuant to 42 U.S.C.

§ 1983. 

On May 22, 2006, defendants filed a motion to compel the appearance of Plaintiff at a

deposition. The motion is supported by the declaration of counsel for defendants. Defendants

also seek an order directing Plaintiff to pay Defendants’ attorney’s fees and costs associated with

thiw deposition and Defendants’ motion to compel his participation. Plaintiff has not opposed

the motion. The court finds the motion to compel to be supported by the declaration of counsel

for Defendant. The motion to compel is therefore granted. Plaintiff is directed to attend his

deposition when it is re-noticed. Plaintiff’s failure to do so will result in a recommendation that

this action be dismissed with prejudice. 

Plaintiff will be granted an opportunity to respond to the request for the imposition of

of this order in which to file a response to the request for imposition of monetary sanctions. 

Should Plaintiff fail to respond, a recommendation will be entered, recommending the
