Before the Court is a notice of related cases (Dkt. No. 22), regarding Autobahn Motors,

14

Inc. v. Maskay Corporation, et al., Case Number 15-cv-04803-JST, which the Court deems an

15

administrative motion to consider whether the cases should be related pursuant to Civil Local Rule

16

3-12. Defendants filed an opposition thereto. (Dkt. No. 28.) Having reviewed the papers

17

submitted and the complaints in each action, the Court finds the two cases are not related under

18

Rule 3-12(a). The motion to consolidate the cases pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 42

19

(Dkt. No. 21) is likewise DENIED.1

20

This Order terminates Docket Numbers 21, 25.

21

IT IS SO ORDERED.
