ROBERT HACKWORTH, JR., Plaintiff, v. E. AREVALOS, et al., Defendant.
ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF'S
MOTION FOR JUDGMENT UNDER FED. R. CIV. P. 41(b)
FOR EVIDENCE TAMPERING AND EXTENDING STAY
TO AUGUST 27, 2021
(Doc. 41)
JENNIFER L. THURSTON, CHIEF UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
On July 26, 2021, Plaintiff filed a motion seeking entry of judgment, and Defendants filed a response in opposition. (See Docs. 41, 42.) On May 5, 2021, the Court stayed this case for ninety days, until August 3, 2021. (Doc. 30). Because Plaintiff's motion was filed during the stay, it is DENIED for this reason. Additionally, Plaintiff relies on Federal Rule of Procedure 41, which governs dismissal of actions and does not support entry of judgment. Accordingly, the Court DENIES Plaintiff's motion for judgment. (Doc. 41.) The Court further orders that the stay is extended to August 27, 2021.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
