IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JAMES KEEN,

Plaintiff, CV F 04 5645 AWI WMW P

vs. ORDER RE MOTION (DOC 48)

AMY NOBLE, et al.,

Defendants.

Plaintiff is a federal prisoner proceeding pro se in a civil rights action. Pending before the

court is Defendants’ motion to dismiss and or for summary judgment. Plaintiff has filed a

motion to compel discovery.

Until such time as a discovery order has been entered, no discovery may be had by any

party. Because there has been no discovery, the court will address Defendant’ motion to dismiss

and continue the motion for summary judgment. Sshould Plaintiff prevail in his opposition to

the motion to dismiss, the court will enter a discovery order, setting forth the guidelines for

discovery and setting a discovery deadline. Until such time, any discovery motions are

premature.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiff’s motion to compel filed on June

23, 2006, is denied. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that no party may conduct discovery until

such time as a discovery order is entered.
