D. Madrid, et al.,

[ECF Nos. 45, 47]
Defendants
8
On January 11, 2017, I stayed this excessive-force lawsuit that Drayden Shumpert brings
9
10
against a pair of correctional officers because a criminal case against Shumpert that was based on
11
the same altercation as this case remained pending in state court.1 Shumpert pleaded guilty in
12
that state-court case and judgment of conviction was entered, so he now moves to lift the stay.2
13
The deadline to oppose the lift-stay request has long-since expired, and defendants have filed no
14
response. Because the purpose for the stay no longer exists,
15
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Shumpert’s Motions to Lift Stay [ECF Nos. 45, 47] are
16
GRANTED. Defendants have until February 13, 2020, to renew their motion to dismiss,3 which
17
was pending (and denied without prejudice) when the stay was entered. Because the discovery
18
period has expired (and the scope of discovery was limited to exhaustion issues, see ECF No.
19
25), any party wishing to reopen discovery must file a proper motion to do so.
