ORDER DIRECTING PARTIES TO
INFORM COURT WHETHER THEY
CONSENT TO MAGISTRATE JUDGE
FOR ALL PURPOSES

Defendant.
_______________________________/

For the Northern District of California

United States District Court

10
In cases initially assigned to a district judge, the parties may consent at any time to

12

reassignment of the case to a magistrate judge for all purposes, including entry of final

13

judgment. See Civil L.R. 73-1(b). This option is made available because the magistrate

14

judges in this district have smaller civil dockets and no felony criminal cases and may be

15

able to adjudicate this case more expeditiously than the undersigned district judge.

16

Accordingly, the parties are hereby DIRECTED to advise the court, no later than

17

July 16, 2014, whether they consent to have a magistrate judge conduct all further

18

proceedings in the instant action. Normally the parties would be directed to so inform the

19

court in their Joint Case Management Statement filed in connection with the initial case

20

management conference. However, because this case involves a review of an

21

administrative record, a case management conference has not been scheduled. The court

22

notes that defendant has already filed a consent to proceed before a magistrate judge.

23

The parties are advised that they may jointly request assignment to a specific magistrate

24

judge. For the parties’ convenience, a consent form is attached hereto; forms are also

25

available at http://www.cand.uscourts.gov, in the “Forms” section.
