UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT DISTRICT OF CONNECTICUT WILLIAM ROE, et al., Plaintiffs, v. MICHAEL HOGAN, et al., Defendants. : : : : : : :

Case No. 2:89-cv-570 (PCD)

ORDER Plaintiff Kenneth B. Ruggles has made two motions challenging his present confinement at Dutcher Hall in the Connecticut Valley Hospital in Middletown, Connecticut [Motion for Petition of Habeas Corpus, February 18, 2008; Motion for Writ of Mandamus, March 15, 2008]. The Court had anticipated that a Replacement Monitor would be appointed in this case who could assist Mr. Ruggles with his claims before the Court reviewed them. However, because the appointment of a new Monitor has been delayed, the Court will deal with the motions on their merits. Defendants may file a response to Mr. Ruggles' motions on or before June 20th, 2008. SO ORDERED. Dated at New Haven, Connecticut, this 2nd day of June, 2008.
