GERALD WILSON, Plaintiff, v. M. McDONALD, et al., Defendants.
MODIFIED DISCOVERY AND SCHEDULING ORDER
This action commenced on March 25, 2010 and was proceeding on an amended complaint filed June 6, 2010. Upon the filing of defendants Diaz and Lopez's answers to the amended complaint, a discovery and scheduling order issued on January 13, 2011. Meanwhile, defendant Clark filed a motion to dismiss, which was granted with leave to amend. This matter is now proceeding on plaintiff's second amended complaint filed April 5, 2011.
