Case No.: 12-CV-03114-YGR
vs.
MICHAEL J. ASTRUE, Commissioner, Social
Security Administration,
ORDER DIRECTING PARTIES TO
INFORM COURT WHETHER THEY
CONSENT TO MAGISTRATE JUDGE
FOR ALL PURPOSES
Defendant.
9
reassignment of the case to a magistrate judge for all purposes, including entry of final judgment.
12
Northern District of California
In cases initially assigned to a district judge, the parties may consent at any time to
11
United States District Court
10
See Civil L.R. 73-1(b). This option is being made available because the magistrate judges in this
13
district have smaller civil dockets and no felony criminal cases and may be able to adjudicate this
14
case more expeditiously than the undersigned district judge.
15
16
Accordingly, the parties are hereby DIRECTED to advise the Court, no later than November
17
16, 2012, whether they consent to have a magistrate judge conduct all further proceedings in the
18
instant action. Normally the parties would be directed to so inform the court in their Joint Case
19
Management Statement filed in connection with the initial case management conference. However,
20
21
because this case involves a review of an administrative record, a case management conference has
22
not been scheduled. For the parties’ convenience, a consent form is attached hereto; forms are also
23
available at http://www.cand.uscourts.gov, in the “Forms” section. The parties are further advised
24
that they may jointly request assignment to a specific magistrate judge.
25
IT IS SO ORDERED.
