IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

DAVID WAYNE ELMORE,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-04-2657 GEB EFB P

vs.

TOM L. CAREY, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

Plaintiff is a state prisoner prosecuting this civil rights action without counsel. On

November 29, 2006, defendants filed a request to vacate the dates in the court’s March 22, 2006,

scheduling order because there is a pending motion for summary judgment that has not yet been

ruled on by the court. Defendants note that on December 7, 2006, plaintiff requested an

extension of time to file and serve a pretrial statement. Good cause appearing, defendants’

request will be granted. Vacating these dates renders moot plaintiff’s request to extend the time

for filing his pretrial statement. Accordingly, that request is denied as moot.

On November 9, 2006, plaintiff requested an extension of time in which to file and serve

an opposition to defendants’ motion for summery judgment. However, he filed declarations in

opposition to defendants’ motion for summary judgment on November 28, 2006. Moreover, the

order filed December 8, 2006, granted plaintiff an extension of time in which to file such
