On September 26, 2006, the Court found the above-captioned

cases to be similar, involving similar questions of fact and law,

reassigned the higher-numbered case to the same Magistrate Judge

assigned to the lower-numbered case, that being Magistrate Judge

Sandra M. Snyder, to effect substantial savings of judicial effort

and, therefore, referred defendants’ Davis motion to remand

proceedings (Doc. 9) also to Judge Snyder. 

However, it appearing to the undersigned, the Magistrate Judge

to whom these cases are presently assigned, that disqualification

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 455 is appropriate.

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that:

1. The undersigned recuses herself as the Magistrate Judge

to whom these cases are assigned;

2. These cases be REASSIGNED from the docket of Magistrate

Judge Sandra M. Snyder (SMS) to the docket of Magistrate Judge

Dennis L. Beck (DLB), and that all future pleadings and/or

correspondence be hereinafter correctly numbered as:

1:06-cv-01136-AWI-DLB

-and1:06-cv-01135-AWI-DLB

Counsel are herein advised that use of an incorrect case

number, including the magistrate judge’s initials, may result in 

documents being incorrectly calendared by the appropriate judicial

officer or staff; and,

3. Defendants’ Davis Motion to Remand Proceedings, filed

September 19, 2006 (Doc. 9), is CONTINUED from November 17, 2006 at

9:30 a.m. in Courtroom No. 7 on the Sixth Floor before Magistrate

Judge Sandra M. Snyder (SMS) TO December 15, 2006 at 9:00 a.m. in
