UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SY LEE CASTLE,

Plaintiff,

v.

A. K. SCRIBNER,

Defendant.

 /

CASE NO. 1:04-cv-06624-AWI-SMS PC

ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR ISSUANCE

OF SUBPOENAS AD TESTIFICANDUM AS

PREMATURE

(Doc. 122)

Plaintiff Sy Lee Castle (“plaintiff”) is a state prisoner proceeding pro se in this civil rights

action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On April 9, 2007, plaintiff filed a witness list and an exhibit

list, and on April 16, 2007, plaintiff filed a motion seeking the issuance of subpoenas ad

testificandum.

Plaintiff’s motion is premature, as are his witness and exhibit lists. The deadline for filing

pretrial dispositive motions is April 30, 2007. If neither party files a dispositive motion, or if any

such motion filed is denied in whole or in part, this matter will be set for trial. At that time, the court

will provide plaintiff with further instructions regarding witnesses and his pretrial statement. Until

such time, any filings or motions related to trial are premature.

Plaintiff’s motion seeking the issuance of subpoenas ad testificandum, filed April 16, 2007,

is HEREBY DENIED as premature.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
