UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

GUSTAVO RODARTE,

Petitioner,

v.

M.E. SPEARMAN,

Respondent.

Case No. 12-cv-05340-VC 

ORDER LIFTING STAY; REOPENING 

CASE 

This case was previously stayed pending the Ninth Circuit’s decision in Burnight v. 

Swarthout, Case No. 11-16062. The Ninth Circuit has now dismissed that appeal as moot. But 

the Ninth Circuit has also issued a decision in Nettles v. Grounds, No. 12-16935, which appears to 

have similar relevance. Accordingly, the stay is lifted and the case is reopened. Given the passage 

of time, the respondent is ordered to file a supplemental brief in support of his motion to dismiss, 

not to exceed 10 pages, by June 12, 2015. The petitioner is ordered to file a response, not to 

exceed 10 pages, by July 2, 2015. The motion to dismiss will then be deemed submitted. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: May 29, 2015
