ORDER LIFTING THE STAY
ORDER AMENDING THE SCHEDULING
ORDER
This action was automatically stayed under General Order No. 615, due to the Commissioner’s
18

20
Commissioner files a proof of service showing that the CAR has been served on Plaintiff; or ii) the
21
Commissioner files the CAR.” The Commissioner has now filed the certified administrative record.
