DONTAE LARAIL MCFADDEN, Plaintiff, v. SAM WONG, Defendant.
ORDER
ALLISON CLAIRE UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis with this civil rights action filed pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. By order filed February 27, 2023, this case was referred to the court's Post-Screening ADR (Alternative Dispute Resolution) Project and stayed for a period of 120 days. ECF No. 14. That order provided defendant the opportunity to request opting out of the ADR Project based on a good faith belief that a settlement conference would be a waste of resources. Id. at 2. Defendant has now request to opt out of the Post-Screening ADR Project. ECF No. 18. Having reviewed the request, the court finds good cause to grant it.
Good cause appearing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:
1. Defendant's request to opt out of the Post-Screening ADR Project (ECF No. 18) is GRANTED.
2. The ADR stay of this action, commencing February 27, 2023 (ECF No. 14) is LIFTED.
3. Within twenty-one days of the filing of this order, defendant shall file a response to the complaint.
