Plaintiff is a prisoner proceeding pro se in a civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983.
15
On October 19, 2011, Plaintiff filed a motion requesting a pretrial / status conference and permission
16
to start discovery. Doc. 29. On October 24, 2011, the Court issued a discovery and scheduling order.
17
Doc. 30. Moreover, pro se prisoner cases are not subject to conference requirements of Fed. R. Civ.
18
P. 26(f). Thus, Plaintiff’s request for discovery and a status conference is not necessary per the
19
discovery and scheduling order issued October 24, 2011.
20
Accordingly, Plaintiff's motion is DENIED as moot.
21
22
IT IS SO ORDERED.
