Case No. 21-cv-01301-RMI
ORDER DIRECTING CLERK TO
REASSIGN CASE

v.
KEN CLARK,
Respondent.

13

All named parties, including unserved defendants, must consent before a magistrate judge

14

has jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 636(c)(1) to hear and decide a case. See Williams v. King, 875

15

F.3d 500, 503 (9th Cir. 2017) (magistrate judge lacked jurisdiction to dismiss case on initial

16

review because unserved defendants had not consented to proceed before magistrate judge). It

17

appears that this case requires a decision dispositive of one or more defendants or claims at this

18

time, and consent of all parties has not been obtained. Accordingly, the Clerk of Court shall

19

reassign this case to a district judge pursuant to the court’s assignment plan.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
