IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

GEORGE UBERTI,

Plaintiff,

 v.

SONOMA COUNTY BOARD OF

SUPERVISORS and SONOMA

COUNTY AUDITORY-CONTROLLERTREASURER-TAX COLLECTOR,

Defendants. /

No. C 19-02338 WHA

ORDER DEEMING CASES

UNRELATED AND DENYING

MOTION TO APPEAR BY

TELEPHONE

The Court has reviewed pro se plaintiff’s motion to consider whether the action

currently pending before Judge Donna Ryu, Case No. C 19-04025, is related to the instant

action (Dkt. No. 15). This order declines to deem the cases related. Under Civil Local Rule 3-

12, actions are considered related where (1) they “concern substantially the same parties,

property, transaction or event”; and (2) it “appears likely that there will be an unduly

burdensome duplication of labor and expense or conflicting results if the cases are conducted

before different Judges.” Here, a short order dated June 10 adopted Judge Sallie Kim’s report

and recommendation, which remanded the instant action back to state court for lack of timely

removal. As such, there is no likelihood of “ unduly burdensome duplication of labor and

expense or conflicting results if the cases are conducted before different Judges.” Plaintiff’s

request to appear by telephone for a hearing on the instant motion (Dkt. No. 16) is DENIED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
