NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

 HENRY KING, 

Plaintiff, 

 vs. 

 CAROLYN COLVIN, Acting Commissioner 

 for the Social Security Administration (SSA), Defendant. 

Case No. 16-cv-02912 YGR 

ORDER VACATING CASE MANAGEMENT 

CONFERENCE; DIRECTING PLAINTIFF TO 

FILE SUPPLEMENTAL RESPONSE TO 

DEFENDANT’S MOTION TO DISMISS 

Re: Dkt. No. 20 

 Plaintiff Henry King, proceeding pro se, brings this action for judicial review of a decision of 

the commissioner of the Social Security Administration (“SSA”). (See Dkt. No. 11.) Plaintiff has 

lodged multiple filings arguing a case management conference is not required for this case and 

requesting that the Court vacate the same. (See Dkt. Nos. 11, 21, 22.) This case was recently 

transferred to the undersigned (Dkt. No. 19) and the case management conference previously set is 

therefore VACATED. The Courtroom Deputy has been directed to contact plaintiff King via telephone 

and advise him that he need not appear for the vacated case management conference. 

Also pending before the Court is a motion to dismiss this action filed by the SSA. (Dkt. No. 

20.) Plaintiff King filed pleadings labeled as responses to the motion to dismiss on July 18, 2016 

(Dkt. No. 21) and on August 3, 2016 (Dkt. No. 22.) However, plaintiff’s filings primarily focus on 

the above-referenced case management conference. Plaintiff has failed to respond substantively to 

jurisdictional arguments raised by the SSA in its motion to dismiss. Especially in light of plaintiff’s 

pro se status, the Court will allow plaintiff an additional opportunity to respond to the SSA’s motion 

to dismiss. Plaintiff is ORDERED to file a supplemental response no later than Friday, September 2, 

2016. The SSA shall file a reply within one week of receiving plaintiff’s supplemental response. 

In light of his pro se status, plaintiff may wish to seek assistance from the Legal Help Center, 

a free service of the Volunteer Legal Services Program, by calling 415.782.8982 or signing up for an

appointment on the 4th Floor of the Oakland Courthouse, Room 470S. At the Legal Help Center, 

plaintiff may speak with an attorney who may be able to provide basic legal help, but not legal 

representation. The Court also urges plaintiff to obtain a copy of the Pro Se Handbook, available free 

of charge from the Court’s website (www.cand.uscourts.gov) or in the Clerk’s Office. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
