ECF No. 43. The temporary stay was then extended to allow for the completion of a status conference related to the appointment of a guardian ad litem. Id. at 2. Counsel for plaintiff was directed to contact the potential guardian ad litem to determine whether the potential guardian ad litem was both willing and able to take on that role and to provide possible dates for the status conference.
