Case No. 2:14-CV-01837 MCE-KJN 

Examination of the above-entitled actions reveals that these 

actions are related within the meaning of Local Rule 123 (E.D. Cal. 

2005). Accordingly, the assignment of the matters to the same 

judge is likely to affect 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 Rule 123 merely has the result that these actions are 

assigned to the same judge and magistrate 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. 

 IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the action denominated 2:14-CV01837 MCE-KJN be reassigned to Judge John A. Mendez and Magistrate 

Carolyn K. Delaney for all further proceedings, and any dates 

currently set in this reassigned case only are hereby VACATED. 

Henceforth, the caption on documents filed in the reassigned cases 

shall be shown as 2:14-CV-01837 JAM-CKD. 

 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.
