Examination of the above-entitled actions reveals that 

these two (2) actions are related within the meaning of Local Rule

83-123(a) (E.D. Cal. 1997). The actions involve some of the same

parties, are based on the same or similar claims, and involve the

same transaction or events. 

Accordingly, the assignment of the matters to the same judge

and magistrate judge is likely to effect a substantial savings of

judicial effort and is also likely to be convenient for the

parties.

The parties should be aware that relating the cases under

Local Rule 83-123 merely has the result that the two (2) actions

are assigned to the same judge and magistrate judge; no

consolidation of the actions is effected. Under the regular

practice of this court, related cases are generally assigned to the

judge and magistrate judge to whom the first filed action was

assigned. 

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the action denominated CIV. NO.

S-07-1790 LEW/EFB and the same hereby is, reassigned to Judge

Lawrence K. Karlton and Magistrate Judge Edmund F. Brennan for all

further proceedings, and any dates currently set in this reassigned

case only, including any hearing dates currently set before Judge

Lew, are hereby VACATED. The parties are directed to re-notice any

previously-filed motions for hearing before the undersigned.

Henceforth, the caption on documents filed in the reassigned case

shall be shown as CIV. NO. S-07-1790 LKK/EFB. 

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court make
