v.
MATTHEW CATE, et al.,
Defendants.
/

18

This is a federal civil rights action filed by a pro se state prisoner. Plaintiff’s

19

motion for an extension of time to file a response to defendants’ motion for summary

20

judgment (Docket No. 64) is GRANTED. Plaintiff shall file his response on or before

21

March 15, 2012. No further extensions of time will be granted, plaintiff having known

22

about defendants’ motion for nearly three months.

23

Plaintiff’s requests for temporary restraining orders instructing defendants to

24

return his legal materials (Docket Nos. 65 & 67) are DENIED. Plaintiff has not

25

specified what materials are missing, nor has he specified how the alleged deprivation of

26

such materials prevented him from filing a timely response to defendants’ motion.

27

Defendant Anthony Hedgpeth, Warden of Salinas Valley State Prison, is, however,

28

ordered to allow plaintiff reasonable and sufficient access to his legal materials that are

1

relevant to this action, if such materials are indeed being withheld. The Clerk shall

2

terminate Docket Nos. 64, 65 & 67.

3

IT IS SO ORDERED.
