Defendants.

 /

PETER T. HARRELL, No. 2:07-cv-00847-GEB-CMK

Plaintiff, 

v.

ADAM ORECK, et al.,

Defendants.

 /

Examination of the above-entitled actions reveals that these cases are related within the

meaning of Eastern District of California Local Rule 83-123(a). Specifically, both actions

involve substantially the same defendants, both actions involve the same event, and both actions

involve the same questions of fact and/or law.

The court finds that assignment of the matters to the same district 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 merely has the result that the actions

are assigned to the same judges. No consolidation of the actions is effected. Under the regular

practice of this court, related cases are generally assigned to the district judge and magistrate

judge to whom the first filed action was assigned.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The action denominated as Case No. 2:07-cv-00847-GEB-CMK is reassigned to

United States District Judge Morrison C. England, Jr., and United States Magistrate Judge Craig

M. Kellison for all further proceedings;

2. Henceforth, the caption on documents filed in the reassigned case shall be shown

as 2:07-cv-00847-MCE-CMK; and

3. The Clerk of the Court is directed to make appropriate adjustment in the

assignment of civil cases to compensate for this reassignment.

Dated: August 30, 2007
