ORDER REQUIRING DEFENDANTS TO 

RESPOND TO PLAINTIFF’S MOTION TO 

EXTEND DISPOSITIVE MOTION 

DEADLINE

(Document 128)

Plaintiff Joshua J. Cantu (“Plaintiff”) is a former California state prisoner proceeding pro se 

in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983.

On November 14, 2014, the Court granted Plaintiff’s motion to compel and ordered 

Defendant Baptiste to provide responses to Plaintiff’s April 23, 2014, discovery requests within 

forty-five days.

The discovery deadline has passed. Currently, dispositive motions are to be filed by 

February 27, 2015.

On February 25, 2015, Plaintiff filed a request to extend the dispositive motion deadline. He

was recently released from custody and indicates that he has not received the responses from 

Defendant Baptiste.
