This civil case was randomly assigned to United States Magistrate Judge Maria-Elena James

of this District Court are designated to conduct any and all proceedings in a civil case, including a

jury or non-jury trial, and to order the 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, Plaintiffs shall inform the Court, by way of the enclosed form, whether

they consent to Magistrate Judge James’ jurisdiction or request reassignment to a United States
