JESSE D. ALLRED, Plaintiff, v. CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS AND REHABILITATION, et al., Defendants.


ORDER DENYING DEFENDANTS' MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT, WITHOUT PREJUDICE, FOR FAILURE TO PROVIDE THE PROPER RAND NOTICE [ECF No. 46]

Plaintiff Jesse D. Allred is appearing pro se and in forma pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983.

On August 6, 2018, Defendants filed a motion for summary judgment. (ECF No. 42.)

In Woods v. Carey, 684 F.3d 934, 939 (9th Cir. 2012), the Ninth Circuit held that a pro se prisoner plaintiff must be provided with "fair notice" of the requirements for opposing a motion for summary judgment at the time the motion is brought. Review of the current motion shows that Defendants did not provide Plaintiff with the proper Rand notice. See Rand v. Rowland, 154 F.3d 952 (9th Cir. 1998). In particular, Defendants failed to advise Plaintiff of the contents of any applicable Eastern District of California Local Rule requirements, i.e., Local Rule 260; Rand, 154 F.3d 961. /// ///

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Defendants' motion for summary judgment (ECF No. 46) is DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE; and

2. Defendants are granted an extension of time, shall file their motion for summary judgment within fourteen (14) days of the date of entry of this order, and shall provide Plaintiff with the appropriate Rand notice.
IT IS SO ORDERED. Dated: November 6 , 2018
