2

Examination of the above-entitled actions reveals that

3

they are related within the meaning of Local Rule 123(a), because

4

they involve the same plaintiff, are based on the same underlying

5

events, and present similar questions of fact and law.

6

Accordingly, the assignment of the matters to the same judge is

7

likely to effect a substantial saving of judicial effort and is

8

also likely to be convenient for the parties.

9

The parties should be aware that relating the cases

10

under Local Rule 123 merely has the result that both actions are

11

assigned to the same judge; no consolidation of the actions is

12

effected.

13

cases are generally assigned to the judge and magistrate judge to

14

whom the first filed action was assigned.

15

Under the regular practice of this court, related

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the actions denominated

16

Sessoms v. Keller, 2:16-cv-1943 WBS EFB, and Sessoms v. Keller,

17

2:17-cv-304 JAM EFB, be, and the same hereby are, deemed related.

18

The case denominated Sessoms v. Keller, 2:17-cv-304 JAM EFB,

19

shall be reassigned to the Honorable WILLIAM B. SHUBB.

20

currently set in the reassigned case only are hereby VACATED.

21

Henceforth, the captions on documents filed in the reassigned

22

case shall be shown as Sessoms v. Keller, 2:17-cv-304 WBS EFB.

23

Any dates

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court make

24

an appropriate adjustment in the assignment of cases to

25

compensate for this reassignment.
