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

11
123 to the action entitled Gallo Class Co. v. Special Shapes Refractory Co., 1:16-CV-1446-LJO12
BAM. The actions involve the same or similar parties, properties, claims, events and/or questions of
13
fact or law. Accordingly, assignment of the actions to the same district judge and magistrate judge will
14
promote convenience, efficiency and economy for the Court and parties. An order relating cases under
15

this Court’s Local Rule 123 merely assigns them to the same district judge and magistrate judge, and

16
no consolidation of cases is effected.
17
On the basis of good cause, this Court ORDERS that the above-captioned action is reassigned
18
to Chief U.S. District Judge Lawrence J. O'Neill and U.S. Magistrate Judge Barbara A. McAuliffe
19
with a new case number 1:16-cv-1619-LJO-BAM. All documents shall bear the new 1:16-cv-161920

LJO-BAM and the reassignment to Chief Judge O’Neill and Magistrate Judge McAuliffe.

21
IT IS SO ORDERED.
