Examination of the above-entitled actions reveals that they are related within the meaning

19

of Local Rule 123(a) (E.D. Cal. 1997). The actions involve the same parties, are based on the

20

same claims, the same questions of fact and the same questions of law, and would therefore entail

21

a substantial duplication of labor if heard by different judges. Accordingly, the assignment of the

22

matters to the same judge is likely to affect a substantial savings of judicial effort.

23

The parties should be aware that relating the cases under Local Rule 123 merely has the

24

result that these actions are assigned to the same judge. No consolidation of the actions is

25

affected. Under the regular practice of this Court, related cases are generally assigned to the

26

judge and magistrate judge to whom the first filed action was assigned.

27

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the action denominated 2:17-cv-00431-MCE-CMK

28

is hereby reassigned to District Judge Troy L. Nunley and Magistrate Judge Kendall J. Newman
3

for all further proceedings. Any dates currently set in the reassigned case are hereby VACATED.

Henceforth, the caption on documents filed in the reassigned case shall be shown as 2:17-cv-

00431-TLN-KJN.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of Court make appropriate adjustments in the
assignment of civil cases to compensate for this reassignment.
