RELATED CASE ORDER

Case No. 2:12-CV-00134 KJM-CKD

24
Examination of the above-entitled actions reveals that these
25
actions are related within the meaning of Local Rule 123 (E.D. Cal.
26
2005).

Accordingly, the assignment of the matters to the same

27
judge is likely to affect a substantial savings of judicial effort
28
and is also likely to be convenient for the parties.
