UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

WALTER PEDERSON, et al.,

Plaintiff,

v.

COUNTY OF PLUMAS, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 2:89-cv-1659 KJN P

ORDER

Plaintiffs in this action challenge the conditions at the Plumas County Jail. On April 20, 

1992, a Consent Decree was entered. On March 18, 2013, the parties amended the Consent 

Decree.

On March 27, 2015, plaintiffs filed a request for a status conference. (ECF No. 49.) 

Plaintiffs allege that there has been insufficient progress regarding the rate of compliance with the 

Consent Decree. On April 17, 2015, the undersigned ordered defendants to file a response to 

plaintiff’s request for a status conference. (ECF No. 52.) On May 4, 2015, defendants filed their 

response. (ECF No. 53.)

The pleadings indicate that defendants may not be in compliance with the sections of the 

amended Consent Decree addressing mental health care and the law library.
