On July 20, 2017, counsel for defendant FCA US LLC removed from the Kern County
23
Superior Court the above-referenced action entitled Maria Rueda et al. v. FCA US, LLC, Case
24
No. 1:17-cv-00968-LJO-JLT. The court’s review of the records reveals that it is related under
25
this court’s Local Rule 123 to the following action pending before the undersigned: (1) Dennis
26
Hall et al. v. FCA US, LLC, Case No. 1:16-cv-00684-DAD-JLT; (2) Darlene Garcia v. FCA US,
27
LLC, Case No. 1:16-cv-00730-DAD-JLT; (3) Larry Powell v. FCA US, LLC, Case No. 2:16-cv-

02781-DAD-JLT; (4) Robert Heffington v. FCA US, LLC, Case No. 2:17-cv-00317-DAD-JLT;

00427-DAD-JLT; and (9) Carla Sekula v. FCA US, LLC, et al., Case No. 1:17-cv-00460-DAD-
5
JLT. These actions involve the same or similar parties, properties, claims, events, and/or
6
questions of fact or law. In addition, the currently assigned district and magistrate judges in the
7
Rueda action have not engaged in the matter in any substantial way. Accordingly, assignment of
8
the action to the undersigned and to Magistrate Judge Jennifer L. Thurston will promote
9
efficiency and economy for the court and parties.
10
An order relating cases under this court’s Local Rule 123 merely assigns them to the same
11
district judge and magistrate judge, and does not consolidate the cases. Good cause appearing,
12
the court orders that the Rueda action is reassigned to U.S. District Judge Dale A. Drozd and U.S.
13
Magistrate Judge Jennifer L. Thurston.
14
15
Accordingly, documents filed in the above-referenced action shall bear the following new
case number:
16
1:17-cv-00968-DAD-JLT

IT IS SO ORDERED.
