JEFFREY A. DICKERSON.,

ORDER

15

Before the court is defendant Jeffrey A. Dickerson’s (“Dickerson”) motion to stay the jury

16

trial currently set for Tuesday, January 15, 2013. Doc. #97.1 In his motion Dickerson contends a

17

stay is warranted because he submitted a writ of mandamus to the United States Court of Appeals

18

for the Ninth Circuit contesting the court’s subject matter jurisdiction over this action. See

19

Doc. #96, Exhibit 1.

20

On December 12, 2012, the Ninth Circuit denied Dickerson’s petition. Doc. #100.

21

Therefore, the court finds that Dickerson’s present motion to stay is moot and shall deny it

22

accordingly.
