NORMAN RANKINS,

Plaintiff,

No. 2:15-cv-01164 KJM DB P

v.

ORDER

ALEXANDER LIU,

15

Defendant.

16
Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis with a civil rights

17
18

action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. In reviewing plaintiff’s opposition to defendant’s currently

19

pending summary judgment motion, it appears that plaintiff may have omitted or failed to attach

20

documents he intended to file along with his opposition. Plaintiff refers to attached exhibits and

21

various medical records in his opposition. However, the only document filed along with his

22

opposition brief is his own three-page declaration. (ECF No. 70 at 6.)

23

To the extent plaintiff meant to include exhibits along with his opposition the court will

24

provide plaintiff with additional time to submit them. However, plaintiff is advised that this is

25

not a second opportunity to oppose defendant’s motion. Additionally, because plaintiff has

26

already received several extensions of time to file his opposition, the court will not extend the

27

deadline for submitting any exhibits absent extraordinary circumstances.
