ORDER
R. STEVEN WHALEN, Magistrate Judge.
Before the Court is Defendant Sirena Landfair's motion for protective order staying discovery until after her pending motion for summary judgment is resolved [Doc. #19].
I have filed a Report and Recommendation, recommending that Defendant Landfairs' and Defendant McCarthy's motions for summary judgment be granted because Plaintiff failed to exhaust his administrative remedies before filing suit, as required by 42 U.S.C. § 1997e(a). Plaintiff has 14 days to file objections to that Report and Recommendation. It would be a potential waste of resources to proceed with fact discovery until Defendants' motions are disposed of.
Accordingly, Defendant's motion for protective order [Doc. #19] is GRANTED.
Discovery by and from Defendant Landfair is STAYED pending final resolution of her pending motion for summary judgment.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
