JOHNSON & JOHNSON, et al.,

Examination of the above-entitled actions reveals that assignment of the matters to the

24

same magistrate judge is likely to effect a substantial saving of judicial effort. See Local Rule

25

123(a). The actions will therefore be assigned to the same magistrate judge.

26
27

Pursuant to the regular practice of this court, the cases will be assigned to the magistrate
judge to whom the first filed action was assigned. Reassignment of the newer case merely has the

28

1

result that both actions are assigned to the same magistrate judge. No consolidation of the cases

2

is effected.

3

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

4

1. The action denominated as No. 2:16-cv-0805 TLN KJN PS is reassigned from

5

Magistrate Judge Newman to Magistrate Judge Hollows. Henceforth, the caption on all

6

documents filed in the reassigned case shall be shown as No. 2:16-cv-0805 TLN GGH PS; and

7

2. The Clerk of the Court shall make appropriate adjustment in the assignment of civil

8

cases to compensate for this reassignment.
