Plaintiff,

v.

Defendants.

CV F 04-5595 OWW DLB P

ORDER GRANTING PARTIES’ REQUESTS

TO FOR EXTENSION PENDING COURT’S

RULING ON DEFENDANTS’ MOTION TO

DISMISS

[DOCS 58, 66, 68, 70]

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

action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On December 20, 2005, defendants filed a motion to

dismiss this action based on plaintiff’s failure to exhaust the required administration remedies.

On January 5, 2006, plaintiff filed an opposition to defendants’ motion to dismiss and also a

motion to stay proceedings in which he requested additional time to respond to defendants’

motion to dismiss and an extension for discovery. On January 10, 2006, defendants filed an

opposition to plaintiff’s motion to stay proceedings but indicated that they did not object to a stay

pending resolution of the motion to dismiss. On January 25, 2006, defendants filed a motion for

protective order, or in the alternative, motion for extension of time to respond to discovery. On

January 27, 2006, plaintiff filed a request for leave to file a supplemental opposition to

defendants’ motion to dismiss and on February 7, 2006, plaintiff filed a request to extend the

discovery deadline.

 Based on the parties’ respective requests, the Court finds good cause to grant the
