Defendants are further ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE why this action should not be 

reassigned to Magistrate Judge Laurel Beeler. Defendants shall file a written response to this 

Order to Show Cause no later than November 28, 2016. As the parties are aware, Magistrate 

Judge Beeler previously considered a motion to relate this action to Roe v. SFBSC Management, 

LLC, 3:14-cv-03616-LB (N.D. Cal.) (“Roe”), and agreed that the cases were related but found she 

could not order them related because Plaintiff had declined magistrate judge jurisdiction. After 

the undersigned permitted Plaintiff to withdraw her declination and consent to magistrate judge 

jurisdiction, defendants then opposed the renewed request to relate by stating that it had 

determined to block such relation by declining to consent to magistrate judge jurisdiction in the 

instant case. (Roe, Dkt. No. 95.) Now, those same defendants seek to dismiss or stay the instant 

action on the grounds that the cases are related “and indeed subsumed by” the Roe before 

Magistrate Judge Beeler. 

IT IS SO ORDERED. 

Dated: November 22, 2016
