PEDRO SANCHEZ, Plaintiff, v. ROY DEOCHOA, ET. AL., Defendants.
ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANTS' MOTION TO EXTEND STAY UNTIL APRIL 4, 2022
(Doc. No. 44)
HELENA M. BARCH-KUCHTA UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
Pending before the Court is Defendants' Status Report filed pursuant to the Court's March 3, 2021 Order on September 1, 2021. Doc. No. 44. The Status Report incorporates a motion to extend the stay in this case until April 4, 2022. (Id. at 5). Defendants advise that Plaintiff's parallel state criminal action remains pending, and his criminal trial is unlikely to occur until October 15, 2021. (Id. at 2). Defendants request the Court to extend the stay until April 4, 2022. (Id.). The Court finds good cause to extend the stay until April 4, 2022.
Accordingly, it is ORDERED:
1. Defendant's motion to extend the stay incorporated within their Status Report (Doc. No. 44) is GRANTED and the stay is extended to April 4, 2022.
2. Defendant must notify the Court within 21-days of the conclusion of Plaintiff's parallel criminal proceeding if Plaintiff's parallel proceedings conclude before April 4, 2022. Otherwise, Defendants must file a status report no later than April 1, 2022.
