JAKE PECCIA, Plaintiff, v. STATE OF CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS AND REHABILITATION, Defendant.
ORDER
ALLISON CLAIRE UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
Plaintiff is proceeding in this action pro se. The action was accordingly referred to the undersigned by Local Rule 302(c)(21). On May 17, 2021, defendant filed a motion for summary judgment and noticed it for hearing on June 14, 2021. ECF No. 69. The court issued an order stating that the motion would be heard on the papers. ECF No. 70. Plaintiff did not respond to the motion. Instead, on June 14, 2021, plaintiff filed a request for a 14 day extension of time for oral argument, stating that he contacted defendant and defendant did not oppose the extension. ECF No. 73.
Local Rule 230(c) provides that opposition to the granting of a motion must be filed fourteen days preceding the noticed hearing date. In the interest of justice in light of plaintiff's pro se status, the court will allow plaintiff additional time to file an opposition to the motion for summary judgment and a response to the statement of undisputed facts (ECF No. 69-2). Plaintiff must file his opposition and statement no later than June 30, 2021. Any reply briefing is due no later than July 9, 2021. The matter will be heard on the papers without oral argument.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
