No. 2:09-cv-00292 TLN AC

v.

ORDER

J. NUEHRING, et al.,

14

Defendants.

15
Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding with counsel in a civil rights action under 42 U.S.C.

16
17

§ 1983. Plaintiff pro se filed a “motion to reinstate civil-trial for immediate proceedings.” ECF

18

No. 186. However, so long as plaintiff is represented in this matter, he may properly

19

communicate with the court only through his counsel. Moreover, Judge Nunley has denied

20

defendants’ motion to dismiss. See Order at ECF No. 193, filed on September 22, 2014.1 The

21

motion is therefore moot.
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that plaintiff pro se’s inapposite “motion to

22
23

reinstate civil-trial for immediate proceedings,” ECF No. 186, is denied.
