ARKANSAS GENERAL ASSEMBLY; MAHONEY, Security Captain, Varner Unit, ADC; MADDEN, Security Captain, Varner Unit, ADC; LINDSY, Security Captain, Varner Unit, ADC; BARBARA SMALLWOOD, Business Office Manager Accounting, Varner Unit, ADC; ARKANSAS DIVISION OF CORRECTIONS, formerly known as Arkansas Department of Correction; and DOES 1-2, 2021 Arkansas Act 1110 and Arkansas Code Annotated § 12-29-119, DEFENDANTS
ORDER
D.P. MARSHALL JR. UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
This case is closely related to Hayes v. Rutledge, 4:21-cv-347-LPR, and several other cases recently filed in the Eastern District of Arkansas. Judge Rudofsky has agreed to accept a transfer, and that would promote judicial economy. The Court therefore directs the Clerk to reassign this case to Judge Rudofsky. GENERAL ORDER No. 39, § (b)(5).
So Ordered.
