ORDER OVERRULING PLAINTIFF’S
OBJECTION TO COURT’S APRIL 2, 2018
ORDER DENYING MOTIONS TO STRIKE
[Doc No. 296]
Plaintiff Raymond Alford Bradford is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis
in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983.
Currently before the Court is Plaintiff’s objection to the Court’s April 2, 2018 order denying
20
his motions to strike. (ECF No. 296.) Plaintiff asserts that he properly objected to Defendant Grewal’s
21
filings made before that Defendant answered Plaintiff’s complaint, and objects to the denial of his
22
motions to strike Defendant Grewal’s filings.
23
As discussed in this Court’s March 29, 2018 order, before Defendant Grewal’s answer was
24
due, Plaintiff sought leave to amend his pleading. Defendant Grewal then sought an extension of time
25
to answer until the Court determined whether Plaintiff would be granted leave to amend, to conserve
26
resources. The Court found this to be good cause and granted Defendant Grewal’s request. (ECF No.
27
256.) That Defendant Grewal continued to otherwise respond to Plaintiff’s motions and defend the
28
action while the Court determined whether Plaintiff would be granted leave to amend, was not
1
1
improper. Plaintiff did not present sufficient grounds to strike Defendant Grewal’s filings, and the
2
Court finds no error in its prior determination to deny Plaintiff’s motions to strike.
3
For these reasons, Plaintiff’s objection (ECF No. 296) is HEREBY OVERRULED.
