(Doc. 63 at 1, 3). Defendants conclude that Plaintiff Silvester Gomez ("Plaintiff") has not met his evidentiary burden to succeed on his Eighth Amendment deliberate indifference claim and First Amendment retaliation claim, and therefore, summary judgment is appropriate. (Id. at 15). Defendants' motion for summary judgment, however, does not address Plaintiff's allegation that Defendant Hasadsri "violated [his] Fourteenth Amendment right to due process when [Defendant Hasadsri] intentionally, willfully, maliciously and deliberately delayed and 1 ORDER IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA SILVESTER GOMEZ, Plaintiff, Case No. 1:06-cv-00491 ALA (P)

withheld Plaintiff[']s C.D.C. 602." (Doc. 1 at 29 ¶ 126). Plaintiff asserts that Defendant Hasadsri's conduct "interfered with and delayed [his] right to petition" and also "unnecessarily subjected him to prolonged pain and suffering . . . ." (Id. at 30 ¶ ¶ 128, 129). Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that: 1. Defendants are requested to file a supplemental letter brief on or before May 8, 2009, advising the court whether they are not seeking summary judgment regarding Plaintiff's Fourteenth Amendment due process claim; and 2. Plaintiff may file a response to Defendants' supplemental letter brief on or before May 19, 2009. ///// DATED: May 1, 2009 /s/ Arthur L. Alarcón UNITED STATES CIRCUIT JUDGE Sitting by Designation
