Defendants.

action filed pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. By order filed October 29, 2019, this case was referred

19

to the court’s Post-Screening ADR (Alternative Dispute Resolution) Project and stayed for period

20

of 120 days. See ECF No. 41. That order provided defendants the opportunity to request opting

21

out of the ADR Project based on a good faith belief that a settlement conference would be

22

unhelpful at the present time. Id. at 2. Defendants now request to opt out of the ADR Project.

23

See ECF No. 46. Having reviewed the request, the court finds good cause to grant it.

24

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

25

1. Defendants’ request to opt out of the Post-Screening ADR Project, ECF No. 46, is

26

GRANTED;
2. The stay of this action, commencing October 29, 2019, ECF No. 41, is LIFTED; and
