UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

KEVIN CURLEY, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

RAJA DUTTA, 

Defendant. 

No. 2:17-cv-0105 WBS AC P 

ORDER 

 Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis with this civil rights 

action filed pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. By order filed February 14, 2020, this case was 

referred to the court’s Post-Screening ADR (Alternative Dispute Resolution) Project and stayed 

for a period of 120 days. ECF No. 27. That order provided defendant the opportunity to request 

opting out of the ADR Project based on a good faith belief that a settlement conference would be 

a waste of resources. Id. at 2. Defendant now requests to opt out of the Post-Screening ADR 

Project and that the stay be lifted. ECF No. 33. Having reviewed the request, the court finds 

good cause to grant it. By separate order, the court will set a schedule for discovery and pretrial 

motions. 

 Good cause appearing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that: 

 1. Defendant’s request to opt out of the Post-Screening ADR Project, ECF No. 33, is 

GRANTED.
