v.

Defendants.

(Doc. 7)

10
On December 11, 2013, Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis,

11
12

filed a motion for an order permitting his attendance at all hearings in this matter. Because

13

Plaintiff's motion is untimely, the Court denies it without prejudice, .

14

In prisoner actions, all motions shall be submitted on the record and briefs filed without oral

15
argument unless otherwise ordered by the Court. Local Rule 230(l). At this time, Plaintiff should
16
17

expect that no hearings will be held in this matter. In the unlikely event that the Court later

18

determines that a hearing is necessary, the necessity of Plaintiff's attendance, whether physically or

19

through telephonic participation, shall be determined at that time.

20
21

Accordingly, the Court hereby DENIES without prejudice Petitioner's motion for an order
permitting his attendance at all hearings in this matter.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
