Plaintiff Matthew Hall, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, filed this civil action in Kings
17 County Superior Court on July 10, 2014, and it was removed by Defendants Robicheaux-Smith,
18 Graves, and Clark on November 25, 2014. 28 U.S.C. § 1441. Plaintiff seeks relief, in relevant
19 part, for the violation of his rights under the First Amendment of the United States Constitution at
20 California State Prison-Corcoran. 42 U.S.C. § 1983.
21
A number of virtually identical actions have been removed to this Court. 28 U.S.C. §
22 1441. The Court’s review of these cases reveals that the instant action is related under Local Rule
23 123 to the action entitled Sands v. Smith, 1:14-cv-01780-LJO-GSA (PC). Both actions are based
24 on the same or substantially similar underlying facts and involve overlapping questions of law and
25 fact.
26
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:
27
1.
28
The Office of the Clerk shall relate this case with case 1:14-cv-01780-LJO-GSA
(PC);

The new case number shall be:

and all future pleadings and/or correspondence must be so numbered; use of an

documents and distribution of copies to the judge assigned.
