Case No. 4:10CV319 RWS
MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
This matter is before the Court on plaintiff’s motion for an extension of time to complete
discovery. Plaintiff once again claims that an extension is needed because of his limited access
to legal materials. The Court has already significantly extended all deadlines in this case four
times, and three of those times were because plaintiff made similar complaints. Most recently,
the Court also granted plaintiff an additional 30 days to respond to all discovery requests.
Because of the numerous extensions of time already granted in this case, the age of this case, the
potential for prejudice to the defendants if the Court continues to delay this case, and the fact that
the named defendants are not even the officials who are allegedly restricting plaintiff’s access to
legal materials, the Court will deny plaintiff’s motion for an extension of time.
Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that plaintiff’s motion for an extension of time [#62] is
denied.
