reveals they are related within the meaning of Local Rule 83-123(a). 

Accordingly, the assignment of the actions 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 results in the actions being 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. 

Therefore, action numbers 2:05-cv-2229-GEB-DAD and 2:05-cv2232-DFL-KJM are reassigned to Judge Garland E. Burrell, Jr., and

Magistrate Judge Peter A. Nowinski for all further proceedings. 

Henceforth, the caption on documents filed in the reassigned cases

shall show the action numbers as “2:05-cv-2229-GEB-PAN” and “2:05-cv2232-GEB-PAN,” respectively. Further, any dates currently set in the

reassigned cases only are VACATED and the Clerk of Court is directed

to issue an Order Setting Status (Pretrial Scheduling) Conference in

each reassigned case. 

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: December 27, 2005
