Order re: Defs.’ Wit. Availability for Trial (2:19-cv-00450-TLN-KJN (PC))

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

KENNETH LEE TAYLOR,

Plaintiff,

v.

C. MEDINA, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 2:19-cv-00450-TLN-KJN (PC)

ORDER REGARDING DEFENSE 

WITNESSES ATKIN AND WILLIAMS’ 

AVAILABILITY FOR TRIAL

On January 23, 2023, the parties stipulated that defense witnesses Dr. Dave Atkin and 

Andre Williams could be available for trial starting on Tuesday, February 7, 2023 as opposed to 

Monday, February 6, 2023, subject to the Court’s approval. (ECF No. 166 at 4.) The parties so 

stipulated to accommodate and minimize disruptions to these witnesses’ schedules—Dr. Atkin is 

a practicing orthopedic surgeon with patient appointments, and Mr. Williams was recently 

paroled and has started a new job. (Id.)

Having considered the parties’ stipulation, the Court orders that defense witnesses Dr. 

Dave Atkin and Andre Williams are not required to appear for trial on February 6, 2023. The 

Court further orders that these witnesses shall be available for trial starting at 9:00 a.m. on 

February 7, 2023 until released by the Court.

Dated: January 25, 2023
