Plaintiff Juan Jaimes is appearing pro se and in forma pauperis in this civil rights action
pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983.
On July 25, 2016, Defendants filed a motion to extend the time for filing a dispositive
motions. Defendants move for an extension of the dispositive motion deadline on the ground
that Plaintiff was granted five extensions of time to file opposition to Defendants’ motion for
summary judgment (based on non-exhaustion). (ECF Nos. 38, 41, 43, 45, 47.) Defendants
contend that the motions for extensions of time resulted in a delay in discovery and has made it
difficult to complete a motion for summary judgment on the merits by the existing deadline,
August 1, 2016. Further, the findings and recommendations regarding the motion for summary
judgment (based on non-exhaustion) was entered on June 23, 2016. (ECF No. 58.) A final order
on the motion for summary judgment has yet to be entered. Defendants seek an extension of
28
1
1 time of sixty days until after a final ruling on Defendants’ summary judgment motions (based on
2 non-exhaustion).
The Court finds good cause to extend the dispositive motion filing deadline. The Court
3
4 will set a date certain of October 3, 2016, in which to file dispositive motions.
Further
5 extensions of time will only be granted on a showing of good cause.
6
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Defendants’ motion to extend the dispositive
7 motion filing deadline is GRANTED. The dispositive motion filing deadline is extended to
8 October 3, 2016.
