DANNY ATTERBURY,

Plaintiff,

v. CIV. NO. S-05-2383 GEB/PAN P

ADAM WEINER, et al., RELATED CASE ORDER

Defendants.

 /

Examination of the above-entitled actions reveals that 

the two (2) actions are related within the meaning of Local Rule

83-123(a) (E.D. Cal. 1997). The actions involve some of the same

parties, and are based on the same or similar claims, some of the

same events, similar questions of fact and law.

Accordingly, the assignment of the matters to the same judge

and magistrate judge is likely to effect a substantial savings of

judicial effort and is also likely to be convenient for the

parties.

The parties should be aware that relating the cases under

Local Rule 83-123 merely has the result that the two (2) actions

are assigned to the same judge and magistrate judge; no

consolidation of the actions is effected. Under the regular

practice of this court, related cases are generally assigned to the

judge and magistrate judge to whom the first filed action was

assigned. 

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the action denominated CIV. NO.

S-05-2383 GEB/PAN P be, and the same hereby is, reassigned to Judge

Lawrence K. Karlton and Magistrate Judge Dale A. Drozd for all

further proceedings, and any dates currently set in this reassigned

case only are hereby VACATED. Henceforth, the caption on documents

filed in the reassigned case shall be shown as CIV. NO. S-05-2383

LKK/DAD P. 

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court make

appropriate adjustment in the assignment of civil cases to

compensate for this reassignment.

DATED: March 30, 2006.
