On February 7, 2017, however, attorney Richard Morin was substituted in on 23 behalf of two defendants. (ECF Nos. 24 & 25.) 24 Because all defendants are no longer proceeding pro se, Local Rule 302(c)(21) no longer 25 applies and, accordingly, the case will be referred back to the assigned District Judge. Therefore, 26 all pretrial motions, other than discovery motions, should now be noticed for hearing before the 27 District Judge assigned to this action. The assigned magistrate judge shall continue to perform all 28 duties described in Local Rule 302(c)(1)-(20). 1 1 Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that: 2 1. This matter is referred back to the District Judge assigned to this action pursuant to 3 Local Rule 302(c)(21); 4 2. All dates pending before the undersigned are vacated; and 5 3. Henceforth the caption on documents filed in this action shall be 6 7 8 No. 2:16-cv-2652 JAM DB with the “PS” designation being eliminated. IT IS SO ORDERED.
