Review of the above-captioned action reveals that it is related under this Court’s Local

20

Rule 123 to the action entitled Picayune Rancheria of Chukchansi. v. Rabobank, et al., Case

21

No. CV F 13-0609 LJO MJS. The actions involve the same or similar parties, properties,

22

claims, events and/or questions of fact or law. Accordingly, assignment of the actions to the

23

same district judge and magistrate judge will promote convenience, efficiency and economy

24

for the Court and parties. An order relating cases under this Court’s Local Rule 123 merely

25

assigns them to the same district judge and magistrate judge, and no consolidation of cases is

26

effected.

27

On the basis of good cause, this Court ORDERS that the above-captioned action is

28

reassigned to U.S. Magistrate Judge Michael J. Seng with a new CASE NO. CV F 13-0831

1

LJO MJS. All documents shall bear the new CASE NO. CV F 13-0831 LJO MJS and the

reassignment to Magistrate Judge Seng. U.S. District Judge Lawrence J. O'Neill will remain

3

assigned to this action.

The proposed intervenor defendant (Lewis Faction) will need to reset its motion to
