UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

KENNETH LEE TAYLOR,

Plaintiff,

v.

MARSHA INGRAM, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 2:21-cv-01042 TLN DB P

ORDER

Plaintiff Kenneth Lee Taylor is appearing pro se and in forma pauperis in this civil rights 

action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Plaintiff claims that defendant retaliated against him in 

violation of his First Amendment Rights. Presently before the court is defendant’s motion for an 

extension of time. (ECF No. 53.) 

Defendants request to modify the discovery and scheduling order. (ECF No. 53.) In 

support of the request, defendants state that the court recently amended the scheduling order 

providing that plaintiff shall file updated responses to defendant’s discovery requests. (Id. at 3-4.) 

Defendants further state that under the current scheduling order the pretrial motion deadline is 

February 18, 2024, and plaintiff’s deadline for submitting his supplemental responses is February 

24, 2024. (ECF No. 53-1 at 2.) Accordingly, defendants request that the pretrial motion be 

extended to trail the deadline for discovery responses by sixty days. Good cause appearing, the 

court will grant the motion.
