Examination of case number Civ S-12-313 reveals that it is related within the

13

meaning of Local Rule 123(a). This action is related to Spiller • McProud’s claim in Siller’s

14

bankruptcy proceedings. Accordingly, the assignment of this matter to the same judge is likely

15

to effect a substantial savings of judicial effort and is likely to be convenient for the parties.
The parties should be aware that relating cases under Rule 123 causes the actions

16
17

to be assigned to the same judge – it does not consolidate the actions. Under Rule 123, related

18

cases are generally assigned to the judge and magistrate judge to whom the first filed action was

19

assigned.

20

As a result, it is hereby ORDERED that case number CIV S-12-313 JAM is

21

reassigned from Judge Mendez to the undersigned. Henceforth, the caption on documents filed

22

in the reassigned case shall be shown as: CIV S-12-313 KJM.

It is further ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court make appropriate adjustment
in the assignment of civil cases to compensate for this reassignment.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
DATED: March 20, 2012.
