JASEN LYNN DUSHANE, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

PHIL MASSA, et al., 

Defendants. 

No. 2:15-cv-2319-CKD P 

RELATED CASE ORDER 

 Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding without counsel in four civil rights actions against 

Sacramento County and staff at the county jail. Examination of the above-entitled actions reveals 

that the actions are related within the meaning of E.D. Cal. Local Rule 123. It would entail 

substantial duplication of labor if the actions were heard by different judges or magistrate judges. 

Accordingly, assignment of the same judge to all actions is likely to effect a substantial savings of 

judicial effort. 

 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 actions is effected. 

Under the regular practice of this court, related cases are generally assigned to the judge to whom 

the first filed action was assigned. As plaintiff has filed a consent to proceed before a United 

States Magistrate Judge under 28 U.S.C. § 636 in the first two cases, no district judge will be 

assigned at this time. See E.D. Cal. Local Rules, Appx. A, at (k)(4). 

 IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the actions denominated 2:15-cv-0136-TLN-CKD P 

and 2:15-cv-2319-CKD P1

 be, and the same hereby are, reassigned to District Judge Troy L. 

Nunley and Magistrate Judge Edmund F. Brennan for all further proceedings. Henceforth the 

captions on all documents filed in these reassigned cases shall be shown as 2:15-cv-0136-TLNEFB P or 2:15-cv-2319-TLN-EFB P.

 Plaintiff has not filed a consent to proceed before a United States Magistrate Judge in 

this case. Accordingly, the Clerk will be directed to assign Judge Nunley to this case as well.

 It is further ordered that the Clerk of the Court make appropriate adjustment in the 

assignment of civil cases to compensate for this reassignment. 

 So ordered. 

DATED: December 10, 2015.
