MINUTE ORDER signed by District Judge Kirk E. Sherriff on 8/13/2026: (Text Only Entry). Examination of this action reveals that it is related to Melendez Bustos v. Warden, 1:26-cv-02046-KES-EPG, within the meaning of Local Rule 123(a). See Local Rule 123(a)(1), (2). Accordingly, the assignment of this matter to the same judge and magistrate judge as in Melendez Bustos v. Warden, 1:26-cv-02046-KES-EPG, is likely to effect a substantial savings of judicial effort and is likely to be convenient for the parties. It is hereby ORDERED that 1:26-cv-05775-DC-CKD is reassigned from District Judge Dena M. Coggins and Magistrate Judge Carolyn K. Delaney to District Judge Kirk E. Sherriff and Magistrate Judge Erica P. Grosjean. The caption on documents filed in the reassigned case shall be shown as 1:26-cv-05775-KES-EPG. It is further ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court make appropriate adjustment in the assignment of civil cases to compensate for this reassignment. This matter is referred to the assigned magistrate judge for further proceedings, including the preparation of findings and recommendations on the 1 petition for writ of habeas corpus.
