ORDER THAT THE PARTIES SUBMIT A JOINT STATEMENT ON OUTSTANDING ISSUES ONE WEEK BEFORE HEARING

Plaintiff Jared M. Villery is a state prisoner proceeding without counsel in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On May 29, 2019, plaintiff filed a motion to compel additional responses to interrogatories and the production of more documents. ECF No. 57. On August 28, 2019, the court held an informal telephonic hearing to discuss the issues and, the next day, ordered that the parties file a joint statement of the outstanding issues by October 30, 2019. ECF No. 67. On October 30, 2019, the parties filed such a statement, identifying several issues of continued disagreement and two issues that would require an additional 30 days to resolve. See ECF No. 70.

The court sets this matter for a telephonic hearing on February 24, 2020, at 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time before Magistrate Judge Jeremy D. Peterson.

Plaintiff shall arrange with the staff at his institution of confinement for his attendance at the conference. Plaintiff's institution of confinement shall make him available for the conference at the date and time indicated above. Prior to the conference, defense counsel shall confirm with plaintiff's institution of confinement that arrangements have been made for plaintiff's attendance.
