UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

WANDA NICKS, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA TRANSIT 

AUTHORITY, 

Defendant. 

No. 3:07-cv-1808-CRB 

[PROPOSED] ORDER GRANTING 

DEFENDANT’S ADMINISTRATIVE 

MOTION TO DETERMINE WHETHER 

CASES ARE RELATED 

Defendant Central Contra Costa Transit Authority’s (“Defendant”) administrative motion 

to determine whether cases are related came on regularly for hearing and is appropriate for 

resolution without oral argument. For the reasons set forth below, the Court GRANTS 

Defendant’s Motion. 

The Court finds that the actions involve the same parties and also finds that the alleged 

claims and events that give rise to the alleged claims are the same. In addition, the Court finds 

that litigating the cases before different Judges would be burdensome and would result in 

unnecessary duplication of effort. Further, maintaining these cases as separate creates a genuine 

possibility of an inconsistent ruling. 

For the foregoing reasons, the Court GRANTS Defendant’s Motion. 

IT IS SO ORDERED. 

DATED: October 22, 2007
