UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

MARIO BROWN, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

CAROLYN W. COLVIN, Acting 

Commissioner of Social Security, 

Defendant. 

No. 2:12-cv-2313-EFB 

MARIO LAMONT BROWN, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

CAROLYN W. COLVIN, Acting 

Commissioner of Social Security, 

Defendant. 

No. 2:14-cv-952-EFB 

RELATED CASE ORDER 

Examination of the above-entitled actions reveals that the actions are related within the 

meaning of E.D. Cal. Local Rule 123. The actions arise out of the same transaction or series of 

transactions, involve the same parties, and would therefore entail a substantial duplication of 

labor if heard by different judges. Accordingly, the assignment of the matters to the same judge 

is likely to effect a substantial savings of judicial effort and is also likely to be convenient for the 

parties.

 The parties should be aware that relating the cases under Local Rules 123 merely has the 

result that both actions are assigned to the same judge; no consolidation of the actions is effected. 

Under the regular practice of this court, related cases are generally assigned to the judge to whom 

the first filed action was assigned. 

 Because the cases are already assigned to the same magistrate judge, this order is issued 

for informational purposes only and shall have no effect on the status of the cases. 

DATED: September 21, 2015.
