ORDER

16

Before the Court is plaintiff’s Motion to Hold Proceedings in Abeyance (#77).

17

On March 19, 2013, this Court ordered that Plaintiff’s Motion for Voluntary Dismissal

18

(#75) would be granted if plaintiff files proof that he has associated with counsel within 60 days

19

of that Order. On March 28, 2013, plaintiff filed his Motion to Hold Proceedings in Abeyance,

20

seeking to stay enforcement of the March 19 Order. Plaintiff does not state how long the case

21

should be held in abeyance, nor does he explain what act or event would trigger an end to the

22

stay, should one be granted. Moreover, the reasons set forth in his Motion do not justify holding

23

this matter in abeyance.

in Abeyance is hereby DENIED. Plaintiff is to comply with the Court’s March 19 2013 Order.
DATED this 30th day of April, 2013.
