UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

CHRISTIAN A. ROMERO,

Plaintiff,

v.

NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE LLC, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 2:14-cv-2954 TLN DAD PS

ORDER

This matter was removed to this court on December 22, 2014. (Dkt. No. 1.) At that time, 

plaintiff was proceeding pro se and, therefore, the matter was referred to the undersigned pursuant 

to Local Rule 302(c)(21). On February 2, 2015, however, attorney Rita M. Lingwood filed a 

request to substitute into this action as counsel of record on behalf of the plaintiff and that request 

was granted on February 5, 2015. (Dkt. No. 15.) 

Because the plaintiff is no longer proceeding pro se, Local Rule 302(c)(21) no longer 

applies and, accordingly, the case will be referred back to the assigned District Judge. Therefore, 

all pretrial motions, other than discovery motions, should now be noticed for hearing before the 

District Judge assigned to this action. The assigned Magistrate Judge shall continue to perform 

all duties described in Local Rule 302(c)(1)-(20).
