v.
RANJIT S. MANN,

15

ORDER REGARDING DUTIES OF
COUNSEL TO APPRISE THE COURT OF
RELATED CASES

Defendants.

16
Based on review of pending litigation in the Eastern District of California, it appears to

17
18

this court that several cases in this district, and within this division, may involve the same or

19

similar parties, properties, claims, events and/or questions of fact or law. Plaintiff’s counsel in

20

this matter is advised that if they have reason to believe that this case is related to any other action

21

on file under Local Rule 123, they

22

shall promptly file in each action and serve on all parties in each
action a Notice of Related Cases. This notice shall set forth the title
and number of each possibly related action, together with a brief
statement of their relationship and the reasons why assignment to a
single Judge and/or Magistrate Judge is likely to effect a savings of
judicial effort and other economies.

Accordingly, within seven days of the date of this order, plaintiff’s counsel is directed to

2

file a Notice of Related Cases in each case they believe is related under Local Rule 123.

Additionally, to the extent practicable, counsel is encouraged to advise the court of whether and

4

to what extent plaintiff expects to file additional related cases in this district.

5

IT IS SO ORDERED.
