Case No. 2:15-CV-00622 TLN-CMK

Case No. 2:15-CV-00623 MCE-EFB

Examination of the above-entitled actions reveals that these

26

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

27

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

28

and magistrate judge is likely to affect a substantial savings of
1

1

judicial effort and is also likely to be convenient for the

2

parties.

3

The parties should be aware that relating the cases under

4

Local Rule 123 merely has the result that these actions are

5

assigned to the same judge and magistrate judge; no consolidation

6

of the actions is effected.

7

court, related cases are generally assigned to the judge and

8

magistrate judge to whom the first filed action was assigned.

9

Under the regular practice of this

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the actions denominated 2:15-CV-

10

00622 TLN-CMK and Case No. 2:15-CV-00623 MCE-EFB be reassigned to

11

Judge John A. Mendez and Magistrate Judge Edmund F. Brennan for all

12

further proceedings, and any dates currently set in this reassigned

13

case only are hereby VACATED.

14

filed in the reassigned cases shall be shown as 2:15-CV-00622 JAM-

15

EFB and Case No. 2:15-CV-00623 JAM-EFB.

16

Henceforth, the caption on documents

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court make

17

appropriate adjustment in the assignment of civil cases to

18

compensate for this reassignment.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
