UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JASON BONDERER,

Plaintiff,

v.

CLINGMAN,

Defendant.

Case No. 2:15-cv-1074 KJN P

ORDER RELATING CASES AND 

REASSIGNING ACTION TO MAGISTRATE 

JUDGE KENDALL J. NEWMAN

JASON BONDERER,

Plaintiff,

v.

CLINGMAN,

Defendant.

Case No. 2:16-cv-0795 EFB P

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

meaning of Local Rule 123(a). The actions involve the same property, transaction or event and 

similar questions of fact and the same question of law. Accordingly, assignment of the matters to 

the same judge is likely to effect a substantial saving of judicial effort and is also likely to be 

convenient for the parties.

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

result that the 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 and 

magistrate judge to whom the first filed action was assigned.

Therefore, IT IS ORDERED that the action denominated as 2:16-cv-0795 EFB is 

reassigned to Magistrate Judge Kendall J. Newman for all further proceedings, and any dates 

currently set in the reassigned case only are hereby VACATED. Henceforth, the caption on 

documents filed in the reassigned case shall be shown as No. 2:16-cv-0795 KJN.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court make appropriate adjustment in 

the assignment of civil cases to compensate for this reassignment.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
