The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).

Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
California state prisoner Norman Gerald Daniels III appeals pro se from the magistrate judge's order dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging claims related to his legal blindness. We review de novo whether the magistrate judge validly-entered judgment on behalf of the district court. Allen v. Meyer, 755 F.3d 866, 867-68 (9th Cir. 2014). We vacate and remand.
Daniels consented to proceed before the magistrate judge. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(c). The magistrate judge then screened and dismissed Daniels's action before the named defendant had been served. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(b)(l), 1915(e)(2)(B)(ii). Because all parties, including unserved defendants, must consent to proceed before the magistrate judge for jurisdiction to vest, Williams v. King, 875 F.3d 500, 503-04 (9th Cir. 2017), we vacate the magistrate judge's order and remand for further proceedings.
VACATED and REMANDED.
