UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JOHN WESLEY WILLIAMS,

Plaintiff,

v.

BEER, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 1:21-cv-00155-NONE-EPG (PC) 

ORDER GRANTING PLAINTIFF’S 

REQUEST FOR JUDICIAL NOTICE

(ECF No. 38)

On September 2, 2021, Plaintiff filed a “Request for Judicial Notice of Possible Related 

Case.” (ECF No. 38).

Plaintiff’s request is GRANTED. The Court takes judicial notice that on August 13, 2021, 

Plaintiff filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Williams v. The State Bar of California, E.D. 

CA, Case No. 1:21-cv-01228, ECF No. 1. 

While the cases include at least some overlapping factual allegations, the Court will not 

reassign either case at this time because it does not appear that reassigning the action to a single 

judge is likely to effect a savings of judicial effort or other economies. See Local Rule 123(c). 

The Court takes judicial notice that on August 31, 2021, the magistrate judge assigned to 

Plaintiff’s habeas case ordered Plaintiff to show cause “why the petition should not be dismissed 

based on Younger v. Harris, 401 U.S. 37 (1971), failure to exhaust state judicial remedies, and
