CITY OF AUBURN, et al., 

Defendants. 

No. 2:15-cv-0462 KJM AC (PS) 

ORDER 

 Defendants have moved to dismiss the first amended complaint. ECF No. 12. When 

plaintiff failed to oppose the motion in a timely manner, the court ordered him to show cause why 

the case should not be dismissed for lack of prosecution. ECF No. 14. 

 1. Plaintiff has now filed an opposition to the motion to dismiss. ECF No. 15. 

Accordingly, the Order To Show Cause will be discharged, and the motion will be set for a 

hearing. 

 2. Plaintiff has filed a “Motion To Continue,” in which he apparently asks that the court 

stay this case based upon his assertion that he has filed a petition for habeas corpus. ECF No. 16. 

This motion will be discussed at the hearing on defendant’s motion to dismiss. 

 3. Plaintiff has filed a motion to amend his first amended complaint. ECF No. 17. The 

motion will be denied. Plaintiff has already amended his complaint once, and should refrain from 

further attempts to amend until the motion to dismiss has been resolved. In addition, the motion
