UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

JAMES McCURDY, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

L. THOMAS, 

 Defendant. 

Case No. 18-06232 BLF (PR) 

ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR 

ENTRY OF DEFAULT 

(Docket No. 19) 

 

Plaintiff, a California inmate, filed the instant pro se civil rights action pursuant to 

42 U.S.C. § 1983 against a medical official at Pelican Bay State Prison (“PBSP”). On 

March 28, 2019, the Court issued an order of service directing Defendant to file a 

dispositive motion. (Docket No. 8.) On July 30, 2019, Defendant filed a timely motion 

for summary judgment. (Docket No. 15.) The Court granted Plaintiff’s motion for an 

extension of time such that his opposition is currently due no later than September 26, 

2019. (Docket Nos. 16, 18.) Accordingly, Plaintiff’s recently filed motion for 

“Declaration for Entry of Default,” (Docket No. 19), is DENIED as Defendant is clearly 

not in default. 

 This order terminates Docket No. 19. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
