IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MICHAEL HUFTILE,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-03-0604 DFL JFM P

vs.

JACK VOGNSEN, Ph.D.,

Defendant. ORDER

 /

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with a civil rights action pursuant to

42 U.S.C. § 1983. On March 15, 2006, this court recommended that plaintiff’s action be

dismissed because plaintiff had failed to file a third amended complaint as required by this

court’s February 2, 2006 order. On March 23, 2006, plaintiff filed objections. Plaintiff requests

this action be stayed pending resolution of the petition for certiorari filed in Huftile v. MiccioFonseca, 410 F.3d 1136 (9th Cir. 2005)(pet. for cert. filed December 1, 2005). Also, plaintiff

states he will be undergoing back surgery which will preclude his ability to file a third amended

complaint in the near future.

Plaintiff has failed to demonstrate this action should be stayed pending resolution

of Huftile v. Miccio-Fonseca, supra. However, given plaintiff’s present medical condition, the

court will grant plaintiff an extended period of time in which to file a third amended complaint.

that:

1. The March 15, 2006 findings and recommendations are vacated; and

2. Plaintiff is granted ninety days from the date of this order to file an amended

complaint.
