WILLIAM HENRY PRICE,

12

Plaintiff,

14

No. 2:17-cv-1031-KJM-KJN PS

v.

ORDER

CHILD PROTECTIVE SERVICES, et al.,

15
Defendants.

16
17

Presently pending before the court are two motions to dismiss filed by defendants and a

18
19

motion to substitute parties by plaintiff. (ECF Nos. 17, 20, 31.) All motions are presently set for

20

hearing on April 4, 2019.
On March 14, 2019, plaintiff filed a motion for an extension of time of 30 days to oppose

21
22

the motions to dismiss. (ECF No. 32.) In light of plaintiff’s pro se status, the court grants the

23

request. However, plaintiff is cautioned that no further extensions will be granted absent good

24

cause. Additionally, even though plaintiff’s motion for an extension references substitution of

25

certain parties, the court makes no ruling concerning such matters at this time. As noted below,

26

plaintiff’s motion to substitute parties will be heard concurrently with the motions to dismiss.
