Case No. 1:18-cv-00395
JUDGE ALGENON L. MARBLEY

ORDER
This matter is before the Court on Plaintiff Brandon Bowie’s Motion to Reassign this Case
from Judge McFarland to Judge Barrett. Doc. 52. Previously, I, as Chief Judge for the Southern
District of Ohio, transferred this case from Judge Barrett to Judge McFarland. See Doc. 50.
Plaintiff’s Motion is thus construed as a Motion to Vacate my Transfer Order.
Plaintiff has failed to cite to any prudential considerations that would warrant reassigning
this case to Judge Barrett. Despite Judge Barrett making one prior ruling in this case, the “interests
of justice” alone do not require that the case remain on Judge Barrett’s docket. Accordingly,
Plaintiff’s Motion [#52] is DENIED.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
