United States District Court
Northern District of California
Case No. 13-cv-03826-EMC
ORDER DENYING WITHOUT
PREJUDICE PLAINTIFF’S AMENDED
ADMINISTRATIVE MOTION TO
CONSIDER WHETHER CASES
SHOULD BE RELATED
Docket No. 950
12
13
The Court previously denied without Plaintiff’s administrative motion to consider whether
14
Mendel v. Chao, No. 19-cv-3244 (N.D. Cal. filed June 7, 2019), currently assigned to Judge
15
White, should be related to O’Connor v. Uber Technologies, Inc., No. 13-cv-3826 (N.D. Cal. filed
16
Aug. 16, 2013), before this Court. Docket No. 949. The Court explained that Plaintiff had not yet
17
served the Defendants in Mendel with summons and copies of the complaint in accordance with
18
Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(c). Nor had Plaintiff served Defendants with copies of the
19
motion to relate in accordance with Local Rule 3-12(b) to allow them an opportunity to respond.
Plaintiff has now filed an amended motion to relate Mendel to O’Connor. Docket No. 950.
20
21
However, it still appears that Plaintiff has not served all Mendel Defendants with the instant
22
motion. See N.D. Cal. Civ. L.R. 3-12(b) (“[A] copy of the motion [to relate], together with proof
23
of service pursuant to Civil L.R. 5-5, must be served on all known parties to each apparently
24
///
25
///
26
///
27
///

///
1
related action.”). Accordingly, Plaintiff’s amended motion to relate is DENIED without
2
prejudice. Plaintiff may refile the motion and serve the Mendel Defendants in compliance with
3
Local Rule 3-12(b).
4
This order disposes of Docket No. 950.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
