UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, 

Plaintiff,

v.

DARYL C. CHANG, SR., 

Defendant.

No. 2:19-cv-02440-MCE-KJN

RELATED CASE ORDER

U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, 

Plaintiff,

v.

DARYL C. CHANG, SR., 

Defendant.

No. 2:20-cv-00120-JAM-KJN

An examination of the above-entitled civil actions reveals that these actions are 

related within the meaning of Local Rule 123(a) (E.D. Cal. 1997). The actions involve 

the same defendant and are based on the same or similar claims, the same property 

transaction or event, similar questions of fact and the same questions of law and would 

therefore entail a substantial duplication of labor if heard by different judges.

Accordingly, the assignment of the matters to the same 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 123 merely 

has the result that both actions are assigned to the same judge; no consolidation of the 

action 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. 

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the action denominated 2:20-cv-00120-JAMKJN, U.S. Bank National Association v. Daryl C. Chang, Sr., is reassigned to Senior 

District Judge Morrison C. England, Jr. and will remain assigned to Magistrate Judge 

Newman for all further proceedings, and any dates currently set in this reassigned case

only are hereby VACATED. The caption on documents filed in the reassigned case

shall be shown as 2:20-cv-00120-MCE-KJN. 

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: January 17, 2020
