Richard Sansone (“Plaintiff”) is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma

19

pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. This case now proceeds on the

20

First Amended Complaint filed by Plaintiff on November 13, 2014, against defendants

21

Correctional Officer J. C. Thomas and John Doe #1, for use of excessive force in violation of

22

the Eighth Amendment.1 (ECF No. 27.)

On June 14, 2016, the Court issued a Discovery and Scheduling Order setting out

24

deadlines in this case for filing exhaustion motions, amending pleadings, discovery, and filing

25

dispositive motions. (ECF No. 42.) At this time, the Court finds it beneficial to replace the

26

Discovery and Scheduling Order with a new order entitled “Order Requiring Initial Disclosures

On May 5, 2016, the Court issued an order dismissing all other claims and defendants from this

Based on the foregoing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

VACATED.
