Accordingly, the assignment of the matters to the same

The parties should be aware that relating the cases under

7

Local Rule 123 merely has the result that these actions are

assigned to the same judge and magistrate judge; no consolidation

9

of the actions is effected.

Under the regular practice of this

10

court, related cases are generally assigned to the judge and

11

magistrate judge to whom the first filed action was assigned.

12

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the action denominated 2:16-CV-

13

02633 KJM-EFB be reassigned to Judge John A. Mendez and Magistrate

14

Judge Deborah Barnes for all further proceedings, and any dates

15

Henceforth, the caption on documents filed in the reassigned cases

17

shall be shown as 2:16-CV-02633 JAM-DB.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court make

19

appropriate adjustment in the assignment of civil cases to

20

compensate for this reassignment.
