In cases initially assigned to a district judge, the parties may consent at any time to

_________________________________/
reassignment of the case to a magistrate judge for all purposes, including entry of final
12
judgment. See Civil L.R. 73-1(b). This option is being made available because the
13
magistrate judges in this district have smaller civil dockets and no felony criminal cases and
14
may be able to adjudicate this case more expeditiously than the undersigned district judge.
15
Accordingly, the parties are hereby DIRECTED to advise the court, no later than
16
March 11, 2013, whether they consent to have a magistrate judge conduct all further
17
proceedings in the instant action. Normally the parties would be directed to so inform the
18
court in their Joint Case Management Statement filed in connection with the initial case
19
management conference. However, because this case involves a review of an
20
administrative record, a case management conference has not been scheduled. The
21
parties are advised that they may jointly request assignment to a specific magistrate judge.
22
For the parties' convenience, a consent form is attached hereto; forms are also available at
