TATYANA EVGENIEVNA DREVALEVA, Plaintiff, v. DEPARTMENT OF INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, et al., Defendants.


SUA SPONTE REFERRAL TO DETERMINE WHETHER CASES ARE RELATED

Joseph C. Spero, Chief Magistrate Judge

The Court previously granted plaintiff Tatyana Drevaleva's application to proceed in forma pauperis without resolving the question of whether her complaint should be dismissed under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B). No. defendant has yet been served or appeared.

Drevaleva's complaint identifies the following case numbers as related cases: 3:20-cv-07017-EMC, 3:21-cv-01664-EMC, 3:21-cv-02222-EMC, and 3:21-cv-02543-EMC. All of the cases at issue arise out of Drevaleva's employment dispute with the Alameda Health System. This case is therefore REFERRED sua sponte to the Honorable Edward Chen under Civil Local Rule 3-12(c) to determine whether it is related to the lowest-numbered of those cases, Drevaleva v. Justices of the California Court of Appeal, No. 20-cv-07017-EMC (N.D. Cal.). Drevaleva may file a response addressing whether the cases are related no later than August 6, 2021. See Civ. L.R. 3-12(c), 3-12(e), 7-11(b).

The complaint also notes as related cases 3:16-cv-07414-LB and 3:20-cv-00642-JD. The former has been closed for many years and the latter consists only of claims against the Honorable Laurel Beeler for her adjudication of the former. Judge Beeler is named as a defendant in the caption of this case, but Drevaleva's complaint includes no other reference to her. The Court expresses no opinion as to whether this case is related to either of those cases, and this referral is without prejudice to any party filing a motion, or any judge issuing a referral, to determine whether they are related.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
