ORDER STAYING CASE, GRANTING #4 MOTION to Stay filed by Peter Gakuba. This case is duplicative of Case No. 19-cv-1081-SMY which currently has a pending motion for summary judgment on the issue of whether Plaintiff exhausted his administrative remedies. Plaintiff filed the present case to preserve his claims should that case be dismissed because Plaintiff has already been informed that he has not exhausted his administrative remedies (See 19-cv-1081, Doc. 90). Accordingly, this case is STAYED until the conclusion of Case No. 19-cv-1081. Until that time, the Court DEFERS screening of Plaintiff's Complaint pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1915A. No service shall be ordered in this case until screening is completed. Plaintiff is INSTRUCTED to provide the Court with a status of Case No. 19-cv-1081 in 90 days. Plaintiff's request for a TRO and injunctive relief is also DENIED as moot as he can seek any injunctive relief in 19-cv-1081, which is still pending.. Signed by Chief Judge Nancy J. Rosenstengel on 3/17/2020. (anp)THIS TEXT ENTRY IS AN ORDER OF THE COURT. NO FURTHER DOCUMENTATION WILL BE MAILED.
