UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

DAVID PIERRE-JONES,

Plaintiff,

v.

JEREMY DEFRANCO,

Defendant.

Case No.: 1:24-cv-00904-CDB (PC)

ORDER LIFTING STAY

ORDER DIRECTING CLERK OF THE 

COURT TO ISSUE DISCOVERY AND 

SCHEDULING ORDER

ORDER DIRECTING PARTIES TO FILE 

CONSENT/DECLINE FORM

Plaintiff David Pierre-Jones (“Plaintiff”) is proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in 

this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. 

On November 8, 2024, this Court issued its Order Referring Case to Post-Screening ADR 

and Staying Case for 120 Days. (Doc. 17). The Court ordered the parties to file notice, within 45 

days from the date of the order, indicating whether they believed an early settlement conference 

would be productive in this matter. (Id. at 2).

On December 20, 2024, Defendant filed a notice indicating that an early settlement 

conference would not be productive in this matter. (Doc. 21).

Because Defendant does not believe that an early settlement conference would be 

productive, the Court will lift the previously imposed stay and issue a discovery and scheduling 

order.
