SOCIAL SECURITY CONSENT ORDER
In the interests of the prompt and efficient adjudication of this
case, it is ordered that the parties discuss whether they are willing to
consent, under 28 U.S.C. § 636(c), to conducting all further proceedings
in this case before the assigned Magistrate Judge.
If both parties consent to proceed before the Magistrate Judge,
counsel for the defendant must, within two weeks of the date of this
order, file a fully executed Notice, Consent and Reference of a Civil
Action to a Magistrate Judge form, a copy of which is available in
fillable format at www.mied.uscourts.gov. If such a form is submitted,
the Court will review it and enter a reference order and all further

proceedings will be conducted before the Magistrate Judge. Any appeal
of the Magistrate’s decision would be taken directly to the United States
Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit.
If either party does not consent to conducting all further
proceedings before the assigned Magistrate Judge, the parties must file
a joint notice, within two weeks of the date of this order advising the
Court that the parties do not consent, but without disclosing the
identity of the party or parties who do not consent.
The parties are free to withhold consent without negative
consequences.
