ORDER

DR. ABDUR-RAHMAN et al.,

Defendants.

On July 20, 2015, this court granted defendant Ellis’ motion to modify the court’s

18

discovery and scheduling order and allowed defendant up to and including August 6, 2015, to file

19

a dispositive motion in this civil rights action. The allotted time period has now expired, and

20

defendant has not filed a dispositive motion. Defendant is not required to file a dispositive

21

motion, but in light of defendant’s previous request for additional time to do so, the court will

22

require defense counsel to file a status report addressing how defendant now intends to proceed in

23

this action before this court issues a further scheduling order.
