Examination of the above-entitled actions reveals

2 that these actions are related within the meaning of 3 Local Rule

83-123 (E.D. Cal. 2005). Accordingly, the

4 assignment of the matters to the same judge and 5 magistrate judge is likely to effect a substantial 6 savings of judicial effort and is also likely to be 7 convenient for the parties. 8 9

The parties should be aware that relating the cases

10 under Local Rule 83-123 merely has the result that these 11 actions are assigned to the same judge and magistrate 12 judge; no consolidation of the actions is effected. 13 Under the regular practice of this court, related cases 14 are generally assigned to the judge and magistrate judge 15 to whom the first filed action was assigned. 16 17

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the action denominated

18 Civ.S-08-0067 be reassigned to Judge Ronald S.W. Lew and 19 Magistrate Judge Gregory G. Hollows for all further 20 proceedings, and any dates currently set in this 21 reassigned case only are hereby VACATED.

The parties

22 are referred to the attached Order Requiring Joint 23 Status Report.

Henceforth, the caption on documents

24 filed in the reassigned cases shall be shown as Civ.S25 08-0067 LEW GGH. 26 27

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court

28 make appropriate adjustment in the assignment of civil

1 cases to compensate for this reassignment. 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 DATE: January 31, 2008 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28
