RELATED CASE ORDER

Case No. 2:18-CV-02684 WBS-DB

Examination of the above-entitled actions reveals that these

24

actions are related within the meaning of Local Rule 123 (E.D. Cal.

25

2005).

26

judge and magistrate judge is likely to affect a substantial

27

savings of judicial effort and is also likely to be convenient for

28

the parties.

Accordingly, the assignment of the matters to the same

1

1

The parties should be aware that relating the cases under

2

Local Rule 123 merely has the result that these actions are

3

assigned to the same judge and magistrate judge; no consolidation

4

of the actions is effected.

5

court, related cases are generally assigned to the judge and

6

magistrate judge to whom the first filed action was assigned.

Under the regular practice of this

7

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the action denominated 2:18-CV-

8

02684 WBS-DB be reassigned to Judge John A. Mendez and Magistrate

9

Judge Deborah Barnes for all further proceedings, and any dates

10

currently set in the reassigned case only are hereby VACATED.

11

Henceforth, the caption on documents filed in the reassigned case

12

shall be shown as 2:18-CV-02684 JAM-DB.

13

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court make

14

appropriate adjustment in the assignment of civil cases to

15

compensate for this reassignment.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

October 3, 2018.
