Defendants.

17

Plaintiff is a state prisoner, proceeding through counsel, with a civil rights action pursuant

18

to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On March 24, 2020, the Honorable William B. Shubb granted defendants’

19

motion to stay this action. (ECF No. 131.) Judge Shubb also ordered defendants to file a status

20

report within thirty days addressing the status of plaintiff’s criminal proceedings. (Id.)

21

On April 20, 2020, defendants filed a status report. (ECF No. 132.) Defendants state that

22

the Deputy District Attorney indicated that the trial is set for June 9, 2020. (Id.) In light of the

23

COVID-19 crisis, it remains unclear whether this date will be held firm by the Chief Justice. (Id.)

24

Good cause appearing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that on or before June 10, 2020,

25

defendants shall file a status report addressing the status of plaintiff’s criminal proceedings.
