NICHOLAS STEPHENS, Plaintiff, v. UNITED PARCEL SERVICE, INC., Defendant.
ORDER DISMISSING ACTION
JACQUELINE SCOTT CORLEY UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
Nicholas Stephens, who is representing himself, filed three actions against his employer United Parcel Service (UPS). See Nos. 23-6081, 24-500, 24-546. The first-filed action was removed from the Alameda County Superior Court. See No. 23-6081, Dkt. No. 1. Shortly after removal, UPS moved to dismiss. Before the Court ruled on that motion, Plaintiff filed two new actions in this court, also against UPS. See Nos. 24-500, 24-246. This Court has related all three actions. At the hearing on May 2, 2024 in Case No. 23-6081, Plaintiff confirmed all three actions arise out of the same incident and seek overlapping relief. Plaintiff may thus bring all his claims in the first-filed action. See No. 23-6081.
This action is therefore DISMISSED as duplicative of Case No. 23-6081.
The Clerk shall close the case.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
