Murillo v. Commissioner of Social Security

Filing 7

ORDER To conserve resources, to promote judicial efficiency, and in an effort to achieve a faster disposition of this matter, it is hereby ORDERED that the parties must discuss whether they are willing to consent, under 28 U.S.C. 636(c), to conducting all further proceedings before Magistrate Judge Robert W. Lehrburger. If both parties consent to proceed before Judge Lehrburger, counsel for the defendant must, within two weeks of the date of this Order, submit to the Orders & Judgments Clerk at [e-mail] a fully executed Notice, Consent, and Reference of a Civil Action to a Magistrate Judge form, a copy of which is attached to this Order (and also available at https://www.nysd.uscourts.gov/sites/default/files/2018-06/AO-3.pdf). If the Court approves that form, all further proceedings will then be conducted before Judge Lehrburger rather than before the undersigned. Any appeal would be taken directly to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, as it would be from this Court if the consent form were not signed and so ordered. If either party does not consent to conducting all further proceedings before Judge Lehrburger, the parties must file a joint letter, within two weeks 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. At that time, the Court will then refer this case to Judge Lehrburger for a report and recommendation on any motion for judgment on the pleadings. The parties are free to withhold consent to conducting all further proceedings before Judge Lehrburger without negative consequences. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge John P. Cronan on 5/22/2023) (jca)

ORDER

JOHN P. CRONAN, United States District Judge:
To conserve resources, to promote judicial efficiency, and in an effort to achieve a faster
disposition of this matter, it is hereby ORDERED that the parties must discuss whether they are
willing to consent, under 28 U.S.C. § 636(c), to conducting all further proceedings before
Magistrate Judge Robert W. Lehrburger.
If both parties consent to proceed before Judge Lehrburger, counsel for the defendant must,
within two weeks of the date of this Order, submit to the Orders & Judgments Clerk at
[e-mail] a fully executed Notice, Consent, and Reference of a Civil Action
to a Magistrate Judge form, a copy of which is attached to this Order (and also available at
https://www.nysd.uscourts.gov/sites/default/files/2018-06/AO-3.pdf). If the Court approves that
form, all further proceedings will then be conducted before Judge Lehrburger rather than before
the undersigned. Any appeal would be taken directly to the United States Court of Appeals for the
Second Circuit, as it would be from this Court if the consent form were not signed and so ordered.
If either party does not consent to conducting all further proceedings before Judge
Lehrburger, the parties must file a joint letter, within two weeks 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. At that time, the Court will then refer this case to Judge Lehrburger for a report and
recommendation on any motion for judgment on the pleadings.
The parties are free to withhold consent to conducting all further proceedings before Judge
Lehrburger without negative consequences.
SO ORDERED.
