This case was referred to me to determine whether it should be related to the earlier filed
21
case entitled Sherman & Associates, Inc. v. ASM International N.V., et al., Case No. C-05-0500822
RMW. The Court determines that the cases should not be related because the earlier case was
23
settled shortly after it was filed and without any substantive involvement by me.
