SCOTT HEATLEY, et al., 

Defendants. 

No. 2:12-cv-2569 AC P 

ORDER 

 Presently pending in this prisoner civil rights action are two separate motions for summary 

judgment filed by defendants. The first motion was filed by defendant Casey on February 12, 

2015. ECF No. 58. The second motion was filed by defendants Fong, Heatley, Smith and 

Zamora on April 6, 2015. ECF No. 65. Plaintiff was granted until May 1, 2015 to file 

oppositions to both motions. ECF No. 63. However, plaintiff has not filed an opposition to either 

motion or otherwise communicated with the court. 

 Review of the docket indicates that plaintiff’s change of address, as the court noted by 

order filed March 13, 2015, see ECF No. 59, was noted neither by the Clerk of Court or
