United States District Court

For the Northern District of California

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JACQUELINE DOMNITZ,

Plaintiff,

 v.

WAREHOUSE DEMO SERVICES, INC.

Defendant. /

No. C 09-5305 MMC

ORDER DIRECTING PLAINTIFF TO FILE

NOTICE OF PENDENCY OF OTHER

AND RELATED ACTION

On June 18, 2010, the Court was advised, for the first time, that on February 2,

2010, a “Notice of Pendency of Other and Related Action” was filed pursuant to Civil Local

Rule 3-13 in Taddei v. Warehouse Demo Services, Inc., C 10-0765 WHA, by which 

counsel for plaintiff Taddei identifies Domnitz v. Warehouse Demo Services, Inc., 

C 09-5305 MMC, as a related action.

The above-referenced notice fails to comply with the local rules of this district. At the

outset, the Court notes that, when two federal cases are pending in the same district, the

governing rule is Civil Local Rule 3-12, which requires counsel to file, in the “earliest-filed

case,” an “Administrative Motion to Consider Whether Cases Should be Related,” and

further requires service of such motion on all known parties to each action. See Civil L.R.

3-12(b).

Given the length of time that has elapsed since the filing of the above-referenced

notice, however, the Court, to avoid further delay of its resolution, hereby DIRECTS

counsel for plaintiff to file and serve no later than June 28, 2010, a copy of said notice on all

parties to the above-titled earlier-filed action, after which the Court will consider the

question of whether the cases should be related. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: June 22, 2010
