RAYMOND DOMINGUEZ,

Plaintiff,

v.

COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL 

SECURITY,

Defendant.

Case No. 19-cv-07594-PJH 

ORDER DIRECTING PARTIES TO 

FILE CONSENT OR DECLINATION TO 

MAGISTRATE JUDGE JURISDICTION 

FOR ALL PURPOSES

In cases assigned to a district judge, the parties may consent at any time to 

reassignment of the case to a magistrate judge for all purposes, including entry of final 

judgment. See Civil L.R. 73-1(b). This option is being made available because the 

magistrate judges in this district have smaller civil dockets and no felony criminal cases 

and may be able to adjudicate this case more expeditiously than the undersigned district

judge.

Accordingly, the parties are hereby DIRECTED to file, no later than January 30, 

2020, either a consent or declination to have a magistrate judge conduct all further 

proceedings in the instant action. Normally the parties would indicate whether they 

consent to proceed before a magistrate judge in their Joint Case Management Statement 

filed in connection with the initial case management conference. However, because this 

case involves a review of an administrative record, a case management conference has 

not been scheduled. The parties are advised that they may jointly request assignment to 

a specific magistrate judge. For the parties’ convenience, a consent form is attached 

hereto; forms are also available in the "Forms" section at http://www.cand.uscourts.gov.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: January 13, 2020 /s/ Phyllis J. Hamilton
