On December 19, 2012, the district court issued an order (Doc. 8) indicating that this case

21

is similar to Edison v. United States et al., 1:12-cv-1654-AWI-SKO in that both cases appear to

22

involve similar questions of fact and law such that assignment to the same district judge and

23

magistrate judge is likely to effect a substantial savings of judicial effort. See Local Rule 183.

24

Therefore, the district court ordered that this case be reassigned to the undersigned magistrate judge.

25

(Doc. 6.)

26

On January 4, 2013, the undersigned recused herself from case number 1:12-cv-1654-AWI-

27

SKO. The undersigned also recuses herself from this related matter.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

2

1.

The undersigned recuses herself as magistrate judge to whom this case is assigned;

3

2.

This case is reassigned to Magistrate Judge Gary S. Austin; and

4

3.

All future pleadings filed with this Court shall use the following case number:

1:12-cv-1933-AWI-GSA

Failure to use the correct case number may result in a delay in the document being received
by the correct judicial officer.
