[PROPOSED] ORDER

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se. On March 14, 2024, defendant filed a motion

quotation marks omitted). Rule 16(b) provides that “[a] schedule may be modified only for good 

cause and with the judge’s consent.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 16(b)(4). “The schedule may be modified 

‘if it cannot reasonably be met despite the diligence of the party seeking the extension.’”

Johnson, 975 F.2d at 607).
