Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in this civil

22 rights action brought pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1983. Before the Court are two motions to
23 compel filed by Defendants Swingle, Neubarth, and Bondoc (ECF No. 81) and Madina
24 (ECF No. 86). Defendants claimed in their respective motions that Plaintiff had not
25 responded at all to their discovery requests.

However, recent status reports filed by Defendants indicate Plaintiff has now

27 responded to the propounded discovery. Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that
28

1 the August 26, 2015, motion to compel (ECF No. 81) and September 4, 2015, motion to
2 compel (ECF No. 86) are DENIED as moot.
