UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ERNEST LEE VADEN,

Plaintiff,

v.

DR. ROBERT L. MAYES, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 2:19-cv-2216 TLN CKD P

ORDER

On March 27, 2023, plaintiff filed a motion seeking leave to “re-file” motions to compel 

further responses to plaintiff’s first and second requests for admissions. Except with respect to a 

few limited matters, discovery is closed.

Plaintiff alleges he sent the motions to the court on December 15, 2021, when the motions 

would have arguably been timely and learned just recently that the motions had not been 

received. However, on May 16, 2022, in response to a letter received by the court on May 13, 

2022 from plaintiff, plaintiff was specifically informed that no motions to compel further 

responses to requests for admissions had been received. ECF No. 102.

plaintiff’s motion seeking leave to “refile” motions to compel further responses to plaintiff’s first 

and second requests for admissions (ECF No. 157) is denied.
