UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

Following screening pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915A, this action proceeds against Defendants 

Dr. Muhammad Chaudhri and John Doe. Defendant Chaudhri answered the complaint on February 

18, 2015. On Febraury 19, 2015, the Court ordered Defendant Chaudhri to submit his consent or 

decline to the jurisdiction of a United States Magistrate Judge within 30 days. (ECF No. 14.) 

On March 26, 2015, Defendant Chaudhri filed his decline to the jurisdiction of a United States 

Magistrate Judge. (ECF No. 19.) On April 8, 2015, Plaintiff objected to the “late and delayed filing” 

of Defendant Chaudhri’s decline. (ECF No. 21, p. 1.) 

The timeliness of Defendant Chaudhri’s decline has no effect on the orderly process of this 

action. Accordingly, Plaintiff’s objections are HEREBY DISREGARDED. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
