Plaintiff, proceeding in pro per, initiated this action pursuant to Title VII of the Civil

17

Rights act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e et seq., and the Rehabilitation Act, 29 U.S.C. § 701,

18

alleging race discrimination, retaliation, and hostile work environment. Currently pending

19

before the undersigned are plaintiff’s motions to quash (Dckt. Nos. 86, 87) filed on June 20 and

20

June 27, 2013. Those motions were noticed for hearing on July 17, 2013.

21

On July 3, 2013, the federal defendants filed an ex parte application for an order

22

shortening time for hearing on the motions to quash. Defendants request that the motion hearing

23

be advanced to July 11, 2013. Due to the unavailability of the court on the proposed date, the

24

application will be denied. The court will, however, continue the hearing on plaintiff’s motions

25

to the next available law and motion calendar.
