UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff, No. C 06-5838 PJH 

v. ORDER RE MOTION TO 

DELAY ALL ACTIONS

LOUIS G. BEARY, et al.,

Defendants.

___________________________________/

On August 10, 2007, defendant Louis Beary filed a motion to delay all actions until

he is released from the hospital, in which he states that he was admitted to the hospital on

August 7, 2007 for chemotherapy treatments and may be hospitalized for the next two

months. He requests that “this action” be delayed until one month after his release.

There are a number of pending motions in this case that are fully briefed, under

submission, and have no hearings scheduled. As nothing further is needed from the

parties to resolve these motions, there is no basis for withholding the court’s ruling and it

will issue in due course. As for the government’s motion for default judgment and for

summary judgment, which is also fully briefed and is set for hearing on August 22, 2007,

the court finds that the motion is appropriate for decision without oral argument. 

Accordingly, that hearing is hereby VACATED. Accordingly, all motions that are currently

fully briefed and pending, will be decided without a hearing.

As for future proceedings, because it is unclear from Mr. Beary’s motion what

specific aspect of the litigation he wants to delay, the court orders that no additional

motions may be filed by any party and no discovery may be taken by any party for a period

of ninety (90) days from the date of this order. If Mr. Beary seeks relief beyond this

conditional stay, he must support such request with a declaration and medical

documentation of his continued hospitalization or incapacitation. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: August 13, 2007
