This matter comes before the Court on Plaintiff’s “Motion to Stay Proceedings”

15

her motion to compel, which she has not yet filed, or until the TSA complies with the

18

subpoenas recently served on it. Having considered Plaintiff’s motion and the
remaining record, the Court DENIES Plaintiff’s motion (Dkt. # 54). The Court declines
to stay the case, but will provide Plaintiff additional time to comply with the Court’s
September 4, 2013, Order due to any delay caused by the government shutdown.

23

Plaintiff fails to file an amended complaint identifying all of the individual defendants

or a motion to compel within the time proscribed, Plaintiff’s claims against the
