UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SHANNON O. MURPHY,

Plaintiff, No. C 08-0763 PJH

v. ORDER CONTINUING HEARING DATE

UNITED STATES ARMY NATIONAL

GUARD, et al.

Defendants.

_______________________________/

Plaintiff Shannon O. Murphy filed this action on September 18, 2007, in the Superior

Court of California, County of Contra Costa. The address plaintiff provided to the court was

General Delivery, El Cerrito, California, 94530. Defendants are the United States Army

National Guard (California) and Battery S, 243rd Field Artillery. Plaintiff alleges claims of

fraud, kidnapping, discrimination, and child abuse. On January 31, 2008, the United States

removed the action.

On February 8, 2008, the United States filed a motion to dismiss for lack of

jurisdiction. On February 26, 2008, the case was reassigned to the undersigned judge. On

March 4, 2008, the United States re-noticed the motion for hearing on April 23, 2008. On

March 5, 2008, and March 14, 2008, mail addressed to plaintiff at the El Cerrito address by

the clerk of the court was returned to the court as undeliverable. 

On March 28, 2008, the United States filed a certificate of service of all the

documents previously served on plaintiff (prior to March 5, 2008), showing service on

plaintiff at General Delivery, Berkeley, California, 94704-9999. Plaintiff’s opposition to the

United States’ motion was due on April 2, 2008, but none was filed. The United States’

reply was due on April 9, 2008, but none was filed. 

Because it does not appear certain to the court that plaintiff was served with the

United States’ motion papers and other papers filed in the case, the court ORDERS as

follows:

1. The hearing on the United States’ motion, previously set for Wednesday, April

23, 2008, is CONTINUED to Wednesday, May 21, 2008. 

2. Plaintiff’s opposition must be filed no later than April 30, 2008. If plaintiff fails

to file an opposition, the court will decide the motion based on the United States’ moving

papers only.

3. If plaintiff files an opposition, the United States’ reply must be filed no later

than May 7, 2008.

4. Plaintiff shall advise the court in writing of his correct current address, and

shall serve a notice of change of address on defendants. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: April 11, 2008 ______________________________
