ANNA NEPHEW, et al.,

Plaintiffs,

v.

SANTA ROSA MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, et 

al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 15-cv-01684-JSC 

ORDER

In this action, Plaintiffs contend that Defendants violated the Emergency Medical 

Treatment and Active Labor Act by turning away Plaintiff Anna Nephew for treatment when she 

arrived at the emergency room in labor for emergency care. Now pending before the Court is 

Plaintiffs’ Petition for an Order Approving the Compromise of a Pending Action and Disposition 

of Proceeds of Judgment as to a Minor based on a proposed judgment that Defendants provided 

pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 68. (Dkt. No. 16.) Defendants have not appeared in 

this action and have not consented to the jurisdiction of a magistrate judge. The Court may not 

rule on the petition without the consent of all parties. See 28 U.S.C. § 636. Accordingly, all 

parties are requested to file a notice of consent to proceed before a magistrate judge or declination 

and request for reassignment by September 25, 2015.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: September 14, 2015
