ORDER
Defendants.

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with this civil rights action against sole
17
18
defendant Dr. Marianna Lotersztain on an Eighth Amendment claim of deliberate indifference to
19
plaintiff’s serious medical needs. Due to the current COVID-19 health crisis and associated
20
prison restrictions concerning library access, as well as a standard 90-day interval for prisoners to
21
request Olsen medical record reviews, plaintiff requests a 90-day extension of the discovery
22
deadline. ECF No. 48. The current discovery deadline is May 1, 2020, and the deadline for
23
dispositive motions is July 31, 2020. ECF No. 41. Plaintiff’s request includes several documents
24
reflecting his efforts to obtain an earlier review of his medical records. For good cause shown,
25
plaintiff’s request will be granted and all current deadlines will be extended.
26
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:
27
1. Plaintiff’s request for extended time, ECF No. 48, is granted.
