UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

JESSE GREENBERG, 

Plaintiff, 

vs. 

CITY AND COUNTY OF SAN FRANCISCO, 

Defendant.

CASE NO. 19-cv-00490-YGR 

ORDER VACATING JUNE 4, 2019 HEARING 

AND EXTENDING PLAINTIFF’S TIME TO 

OPPOSE DEFENDANT’S MOTION TO 

DISMISS

Dkt. No. 30 

 This Court previously granted the request of plaintiff Jesse Greenberg to file a Second 

Amended Complaint and allowed defendant until May 14, 2019, to file a response. (Dkt. No. 29.) 

Defendant acted more quickly and on April 26, 2019 filed a motion to dismiss. (Dkt. No. 30.) The 

hearing on the motion to dismiss is currently scheduled for June 4, 2019. Under this Court’s Civil 

Local Rule 7-3(a), plaintiff was required to file either a brief opposing the motion to dismiss this 

lawsuit, or a notice that plaintiff does not oppose dismissal by no later than May 10, 2019.1 As of 

the date of this Order, plaintiff has not filed any response to the motion. The Court hereby 

VACATES the June 4, 2019 hearing, to be reset if necessary. 

Affording that plaintiff may not have realized when his opposition was due, the Court 

hereby extends plaintiff’s time to file an opposition. Plaintiff Jesse Greenberg shall file an 

opposition to the Motion to Dismiss no later than May 28, 2019. The Court observes that 

plaintiff has been given multiple opportunities to identify a claim against the defendants. Thus far, 

plaintiff has failed to do so. Failure of plaintiff to file an opposition by that date will result in 

dismissal of this lawsuit either substantively and with prejudice, or for failure to prosecute. 

Defendant’s reply to any opposition must be served and filed not more than 7 days after 

the opposition is served and filed. Civ. L.R. 7-3(c).

The Court advises plaintiff that the District Court has produced a guide for selfrepresented/pro se litigants called Representing Yourself in Federal Court: A Handbook for Pro Se 

Litigants, which provides instructions on how to proceed at every stage of a case, including 

discovery, motions, and trial. It is available electronically online 

(http://cand.uscourts.gov/prosehandbook) or in hard copy, free of charge, from the Clerk’s Office. 

The Court also advises plaintiff that assistance is available through the Legal Help Center. 

Parties can make an appointment to speak with an attorney who can provide basic legal 

information and assistance. The Help Center does not see people on a “drop-in” basis, and will 

not be able to represent parties in their cases. There is no charge for this service. To make an 

appointment with the Legal Help Center, you may: (1) sign up in person on the appointment book 

outside the Legal Help Center offices at the San Francisco Courthouse (15th Floor, Room 2796) or 

Oakland Courthouse (Room 470S); (2) call 415-782-8982; or (3) email 

federalprobonoproject@sfbar.org. The Help Center’s website is available at 

https://cand.uscourts.gov/legal-help. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
