UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JOHNNY EARL EVANS,

Plaintiff,

v.

JEANNE WOODFORD, et al.,

Defendants.

 /

CASE NO. 1:06-cv-01250-OWW-SMS PC

ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF’S MOTIONS

FOR REASSIGNMENT OF CASE

(Docs. 15 and 16) 

Plaintiff Johnny EarlEvans (“plaintiff”) is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis

in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On March 13, 2007, plaintiff filed two motions

seeking reassignment of this action to another Magistrate Judge due to the large caseload pending before

the undersigned.

Plaintiff’s motions set forth no grounds supporting reassignment of this action. A heavy caseload

does not support a motion for reassignment and in any event, all judges in this district share a similarly

heavy caseload.

Plaintiff’s motions are HEREBY DENIED, with prejudice.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: March 16, 2007 /s/ Sandra M. Snyder
