CASE NO. 1:11-cv-01723-SKO
10-20-2011
GUY RALPH PEREA, Plaintiff, v. SALINAS VALLEY STATE PRISON, et al., Defendants.
ORDER ON PLAINTIFF'S PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS
(Docket No. 1)
On October 11, 2011, Plaintiff Guy Ralph Perea ("Plaintiff") filed a petition for writ of mandamus in case number 1:04-cv-05682-OWW-TAG. This petition was erroneously filed as a new case bearing the case number 1:11-cv-01723-SKO. As Plaintiff specifically designated his petition to be filed in case number 1:04-cv-05682-OWW-TAG, Plaintiff's petition shall be transferred to that case. As Judges Wanger and Goldner were assigned to case number 1:04-cv-05682-OWW-TAG and have both since retired, the Clerk of Court is directed to assign a new district judge and magistrate judge to case number 1:04-cv-05682-OWW-TAG.
Accordingly, the Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to:
a. Transfer Plaintiff's petition for a writ of mandamus and file it in 1:04-cv-05682;
b. Assign a new district judge and magistrate judge to case number 1:04-cv-05682-OWW-TAG; and
c. Administratively close this action: 1:11-cv-01723-SKO.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
