ORDER OF CONSOLIDATION

Plaintiffs Corey McCullon and Kerry Kendred Jr., inmates at the Poinsett County
Detention Center, filed this lawsuit pro se under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. [Doc. No.1]. McCullon

transferred to this court as case number 3:14CV00001.
Having reviewed the allegations in these two cases, it is determined that consolidation
is appropriate under Fed. R. Civ. P. 42(a). In accordance with the practice in the Eastern
District of Arkansas, the first-filed case, McCullon v. Hitt, 3:13CV271, is designated as the
lead case. All pleadings should be filed in that case.
IT IS SO ORDERED this 16th day of January 2014.
