ORDER DIRECTING PLAINTIFF TO

FILE CONSENT/DECLINATION

FORM

Pending before the Court is Plaintiff’s in forma pauperis application. Upon review of the

record in this action, the Court notes that Plaintiff has not filed a written consent to Magistrate Judge

James' jurisdiction. This civil case was randomly assigned to Magistrate Judge James for all

purposes including trial. In accordance with 28 U.S.C. § 636(c), the magistrate judges of this district

court are designated to conduct any and all proceedings in a civil case, including trial and entry of

final judgment, upon the consent of the parties. An appeal from a judgment entered by Magistrate

Judge James may be taken directly to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit in the

same manner as an appeal from any other judgment of a district court.

You have the right to have your case assigned to a United States District Judge for trial and

disposition. Accordingly, Plaintiff shall inform the Court, by way of the enclosed form, whether he

consents to Magistrate Judge James’ jurisdiction or requests reassignment to a United States District

Judge for trial. The consent/declination form shall be filed by than May 11, 2010.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: April 26, 2010 _______________________________
