ORDER

Pending before the Court is Plaintiff’s Motion to Subpoena Documents
[# 4]. Plaintiff, who is proceeding pro se, requests that the Court order Defendant
to produce documents. Plaintiff brought this action on February 22, 2013.
Defendant’s answer or response to the Complaint is due April 2, 2013. Because
discovery in this case has not yet begun, any motion to produce documents is
premature at this time. Accordingly, the Court DENIES without prejudice the
motion [# 4]. During the discovery period, Plaintiff may serve Defendant with
requests for the production of documents consistent with the Federal Rules of Civil
Procedure.
Signed: April 2, 2013
