Opinion
Civil Action No. 95-cv-00777-ZLW-OES.
January 23, 2006
ORDER
After consideration of the case file recently transferred back to this Court, I hereby exercise my discretion as a senior judge to decline this case. Therefore, it is
ORDERED that this case is returned to the Clerk's Office for reassignment to an active U.S. District Judge. It is
FURTHER ORDERED that, because Magistrate Judge O. Edward Schlatter is leaving the Court as of February 14, 2006, and because newly assigned Magistrate Judge Michael E. Hegarty, formerly an Assistant U.S. Attorney, would be unable to serve because the United States is actively participating in this matter, this case shall be randomly reassigned to a Magistrate Judge other than Magistrate Judge Hegarty.
