ORDER
______________________________________________________________________________
This matter arises the plaintiff ‘s Request to Begin Discovery Process [Doc. #31,filed
04/03/2014] (the “Motion”). The Motion is DENIED.
The plaintiff requests that the parties be permitted to “begin the discovery process in
order to prepare for jury trial.” The plaintiff filed his Prisoner Complaint on August 14, 2013
[Doc. #4] (the “Complaint”). The defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Complaint on
November 8, 2013 [Doc. #17].1 A Scheduling Conference will not be set, and discovery will not
commence, until after I issue a recommendation on the motion to dismiss.
IT IS ORDERED that the plaintiff ‘s Request to Begin Discovery Process [Doc. #31] is
DENIED.

1

The plaintiff does not indicate that discovery is necessary in order to respond to the
motion to dismiss, and the motion to dismiss does not raise factual issues which would
necessitate discovery.

Dated April 21, 2014.
