EASTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN

STEVEN LAMPLEY,
Plaintiff,
v.

Case No. 17-cv-1132-pp

BRADY LATOUR, KATHY LEMENS,
and JOCELYN JOHNSON,
Defendants.
______________________________________________________________________________
ORDER DENYING AS MOOT DEFENDANTS’ MOTION TO STAY DEADLINES
PENDING NOTIFICATION BY PLAINTIFF OF NEW ADDRESS (DKT. NO. 31)
AND GRANTING PLAINTIFF’S MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME
(DKT. NO. 32)
______________________________________________________________________________
The plaintiff is a Wisconsin state prisoner representing himself. He filed a
complaint, alleging that the defendants acted with deliberate indifference to the
risk that he would attempt suicide, in violation of the Eighth Amendment to the
United States Constitution. See Dkt. No. 1 at 2-5. The court allowed the
plaintiff to proceed against the defendants on that claim. Dkt. No. 17. On
March 19, 2019, the defendants filed a motion to stay deadlines pending
notification by plaintiff of new address. Dkt. No. 31. Three days later, the
plaintiff filed a motion for extension of time and a notice of change of address.
Dkt. No. 32.
The current deadline for the completion of discovery is March 29, 2019
and the deadline for filing dispositive motions is April 30, 2019. Dkt. No. 28. In

1

his motion, the plaintiff asks for an “extension of deadline” from March 29,
2019 to April 29, 2019. Dkt. No. 32 at 1.
Because the plaintiff has provided his new address, the court will deny
as moot the defendants’ motion to stay these deadlines pending notification by
plaintiff of his new address. And, the court will grant the plaintiff’s motion for
extension of time and set new discovery and dispositive motion deadlines.
The court DENIES AS MOOT the defendants’ motion to stay deadlines
pending notification by plaintiff of new address. Dkt. No. 31.
The court GRANTS the plaintiff’s motion for extension of time. Dkt. No.
32. The court ORDERS that the deadline for the completion of discovery is now
April 30, 2019 and the deadline for filing dispositive motions is now May 31,
2019.
Dated at Milwaukee, Wisconsin this 26th day of March, 2019.
BY THE COURT:
