ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR STAY
(Doc. 185.)

16
Robert Benyamini (“Plaintiff”) is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in
17
this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Plaintiff filed the original Complaint on August
18
21, 2006, and this action now proceeds on the Third Amended Complaint filed on May 23, 2008.
19
(Docs. 1, 35.) On May 31, 2012, Plaintiff filed a motion to halt all proceedings in this action. (Doc.
20
185.)
21
Plaintiff requests a stay of this action because he is scheduled to be paroled or transferred to
22
another facility and does not have access to his property. As Plaintiff is aware, the Court does not
23
lightly stay litigation, due to the possibility of prejudice to defendants. Plaintiff has not shown good
24
cause for the Court to stay all proceedings in this action.
25
Plaintiff is reminded that he must keep the Court apprised of his current address. Local Rule
26
182(f). After Plaintiff is paroled or transferred, he is required to file a notice of change of address
