Examination of the above-entitled actions reveals that these

27

actions are related within the meaning of Local Rule 123 (E.D. Cal.

28

2005). Accordingly, the assignment of the matters to the same judge

and magistrate judge is likely to affect a substantial savings of

2

judicial effort and is also likely to be convenient for the

3

parties.

4

The parties should be aware that relating the cases under

5

Local Rule 123 merely has the result that these actions are

6

assigned to the same judge and magistrate judge; no consolidation

7

of the actions is effected.

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the Magistrate Judge assignment
in the action denominated 2:12-CV-01396 JAM-EFB be reassigned to

10

Magistrate Judge John F. Moulds for all further proceedings.

Henceforth, the caption on documents filed in the reassigned case

shall be shown as 12-CV-01396 JAM-JFM.
