 /

Examination of the above-entitled actions reveals that 

these actions are related within the meaning of Local Rule 83-

123 (E.D. Cal. 2005). 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 these 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-05-409-WBS-DAD and CIV. NO. S-04-1124-DFL-GGH be

reassigned to Judge David F. Levi and Magistrate Peter A.

Nowinski for all further proceedings, and any dates currently

set in this reassigned case only are hereby VACATED. The

parties are referred to the attached Order Requiring Joint

Status Report. Henceforth, the caption on documents filed in

the reassigned case shall be shown as CIV. NO. S-05-409-DFL-PAN

and CIV. S-04-1124-DFL-PAN. 

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court make

appropriate adjustment in the assignment of civil cases to

compensate for this reassignment.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

DATED: 6/9/2005

DAVID F. LEVI
