ORDER, re 18 MOTION for Extension of Time to File Response, Plaintiff is hereby ordered to obtain another counsel to either substitute for, or serve as co-counsel to, his present counsel. Signed by Judge Brian S. Miller on 2/16/2010. (jct)

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS JONESBORO DIVISION CALVIN HOSKINS, on behalf of himself and others similarly situated V. No.: 3-08-CV-210-BSM DEFENDANT PLAINTIFF

MISSISSIPPI COUNTY ARKANSAS ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY COMMISSION, INC. ORDER

Plaintiff Calvin Hoskins moves to extend the discovery deadline and to extend the time to file a response to defendant's motion for summary judgment (Doc. No. 18). Plaintiff's counsel began suffering serious health problems in December 2009 and, since that time, has been unable to manage this case. As a result, plaintiff has failed to respond to defendant's motion for summary judgment and the discovery deadline passed without plaintiff obtaining a Rule 30(b)(6) deposition. Due to these circumstances, plaintiff is hereby ordered to obtain another counsel to either substitute for, or serve as co-counsel to, his present counsel. IT IS SO ORDERED this 16th day of February, 2010. ________________________________ UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
