If any party withholds consent, the identity of the parties consenting or withholding consent will not be communicated to any magistrate judge or to the district judge to whom the case has been assigned.
An appeal from a judgment entered by a magistrate judge shall be taken directly to the United Slates court of appeals for this judicial circuit in the same manner as an appeal from any other judgment of this district court.
