UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MICHAEL HOWARD HOLMSTEDT,

Plaintiff,

v.

CAROLYN W. COLVIN,

Defendant.

Case No. 15-cv-02210-PJH 

ORDER DIRECTING PARTIES TO 

INFORM COURT WHETHER THEY 

CONSENT TO MAGISTRATE JUDGE 

FOR ALL PURPOSES

In cases assigned to a district judge, the parties may consent at any time to 

reassignment of the case to a magistrate judge for all purposes, including entry of final 

judgment. See Civil L.R. 73-1(b). This option is being made available because the 

magistrate judges in this district have smaller civil dockets and no felony criminal cases 

and may be able to adjudicate this case more expeditiously than the undersigned district 

judge.

Accordingly, the parties are hereby DIRECTED to advise the court, no later than 

June 15, 2015, whether they consent to have a magistrate judge conduct all further 

proceedings in the instant action. Normally the parties would be directed to so inform the 

court in their Joint Case Management Statement filed in connection with the initial case 

management conference. However, because this case involves a review of an 

administrative record, a case management conference has not been scheduled. The 

parties are advised that they may jointly request assignment to a specific magistrate 

judge. For the parties’ convenience, a consent form is attached hereto; forms are also 

available at http://www.cand.uscourts.gov, in the "Forms" section.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
