FROM: Peter Voelker, Deputy Clerk
RE: NOTICE OF INITIAL ASSIGNMENT TO A UNITED STATES
MAGISTRATE JUDGE TO EXERCISE JURISDICTION AND
REQUIREMENT FOR CONSENT
This is to advise that your case has been initially assigned to United States Magistrate Judge
James P. Donohue. This case will be retained by the Magistrate Judge for any and all
proceedings only in the event that all parties consent to such assignment. You are referred
to 28 USC 636(c), FRCP 73 and Local MJR 13.
You are not required to consent to the assignment of this case to the Magistrate Judge. The
withholding of consent will not result in any type of adverse consequence. If a party
withholds consent, the identity of the parties consenting or withholding consent will not be
communicated to any magistrate judge or to the district judge to whom the case will be
assigned. In the event that a party does not consent, this case will be reassigned to a yet
undesignated United States District Judge.
An appeal from a judgment entered by a magistrate judge shall be taken directly to the
United States Court of Appeals for this judicial circuit in the same manner as an appeal
from any other judgment of this district court.
Should you elect to consent pursuant to 28 USC 636(c), please return the enclosed consent
form by the date indicated on the form by either faxing the executed form to 206−370−8425
