IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

DANIEL STEVE DIXON,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-03-0262 DFL JFM P

vs.

G. LAVIN, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with a civil rights action pursuant to

42 U.S.C. § 1983. On February 23, 2005, plaintiff filed a request for an extension of time to

serve a second set of requests for admissions on defendants. Plaintiff seeks an extension until

thirty days after defendants respond to a second set of interrogatories to serve the second set of

requests for admissions. In an order filed April 25, 2005, the court denied a February 15, 2005

request by plaintiff for an extension of time to serve a first set of requests for admissions, on the

ground that the discovery deadline had already been extended once in this action and plaintiff’s

request had been filed long after expiration of the second deadline set in this action for service of

discovery requests. (Order, filed April 25, 2005, at 5.) For the same reasons, plaintiff’s February

23, 2005 request will be denied.
