to effect a substantial savings of judicial effort. Accordingly, the undersigned has determined it

is appropriate to relate Civil No. S- 07-2113 FCD JFM PS to Civil No. S-06-2892 GEB GGH

PS.

Under the regular practice of this court, related cases are assigned to the district

judge and magistrate judge to whom the first-filed action was assigned. Relating cases pursuant

to Local Rule 83-123 only affects reassignment; there is no consolidation of actions. 

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the action denominated Civil No.

S- 07-2113 FCD JFM PS shall be reassigned and redesignated Civil No. S-07-2113 GEB GGH

PS. The Clerk of the Court shall make appropriate adjustment in the assignment of civil cases to

compensate for this reassignment.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the status conference set before Magistrate

Judge Moulds on April 24, 2008 is vacated.

So ordered.

DATED: 03/07/08 /s/ Gregory G. Hollows
