ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF'S

MOTION TO TRANSFER NO. CV-F08-318 TO DOCKET OF JUDGE

WANGER AS MOOT (Doc. 416)

On March 14, 2008, Plaintiff filed a motion to reassign

Jones v. Wainwright, No. CV-F-08-318, from the docket of Judge

Ishii to the docket of Judge Wanger.

This motion is DENIED as moot. By Order filed on March 13,

2008 in No. CV-F-08-318, Jones v. Wainwright was related to this

action and transferred from Judge Ishii to Judge Wanger.

Plaintiff further advises that "on 4/28/08 - (see Jones

Request for transcripts in #05-148) - Jones will renew his pauper

declaration, as to lack of funds, and job ... so that in

transferred case #08-318, Jones will be allowed to proceed IFP."

By Order filed on March 10, 2008 in No. CV-F-08-318 (Doc.

2), Plaintiff was ordered to submit an IFP application, along

with all necessary documentation, or to pay the filing fee,

within 30 days of service of the Order and was advised that

failure to comply will result in a recommendation of dismissal of

the action. Compliance with this Order by Plaintiff is due by

April 14, 2008. Plaintiff must timely comply with this Order in

No. CV-F-08-318. No. CV-F-09-318 has only been related to this

action; it has not been consolidated. No. CV-F-08-318 is an

entirely separate action from No. CV-F-05-148. 

Plaintiff further requests that the Court "inquire of the

parties as to their intent/willingness to settle case(s) #08-318

and #05-148 (possibly as well)." If Plaintiff is interested in

settlement of any outstanding issues in these cases, he can

contact counsel for the opposing party.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
