IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SAN JOSE DIVISION

Haiping Su,

Plaintiff,

 v.

National Aeronautics and Space

Administration, et al.,

Defendants. /

NO. C 09-02838 JW

NO. C 10-00222 JW 

ORDER DENYING MOTION TO RELATE

AS UNNECESSARY

Presently before the Court is Plaintiff’s Motion to Consider Whether Cases Should be

Related. (See Administrative Motion to Relate, hereafter, “Motion to Relate,” Docket Item No. 69.)

Plaintiff seeks the Court’s determination as to whether Haiping Su v. National Aeronautics and

Space Administration, et al., Case No. C 09-2838, should be related to Haiping Su v. United States,

et al., Case No. C 10-00222. Plaintiff contends that both cases concern substantially the same

parties and events, and unduly burdensome duplication of labor and expense would result if the

cases were conducted before different judges. (Motion to Relate at 2). 

Since the two cases are both already assigned to Judge Ware, finding them related would

serve no further purpose. Accordingly, the Court DENIES Plaintiff’s Motion to Relate as

unnecessary. If Plaintiff wishes to consolidate the cases, he shall file the appropriate motion.
