On November 9, 2015, Plaintiff filed this action alleging deliberate indifference in
violation of the Eighth Amendment and racial discrimination in violation of the Fourteenth
Amendment. (ECF No. 1.) The complaint generally alleges that the defendants were deliberately
indifferent by housing Ramon Talamantez Mendoza at Pleasant Valley State Prison due to the
prevalence of Valley Fever in the area.
A series of similar actions have been related and consolidated. A review of this action
reveals that it is related under Local Rule 123 to the actions entitled Jackson, et al. v. State of
California, et al., 1:13-cv-01055-LJO-SAB; and Smith, et al. v. Schwarzeneggar, et al., 1:14-cv00060-LJO-SAB. The actions are based on the same underlying facts and involve overlapping
questions of law and fact.
