For the Northern District of California

14 Defendant(s).
_____________________________/
15 This case was randomly assigned at filing to the undersigned United States Magistrate
16 Judge. Without the written consent of all parties to jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. section
17 636(c), a Magistrate Judge may not hear and determine a motion that could be dispositive of
18 an action or a claim or defense. On August 2, 2005, defendant Ronald F. Poulin filed a
19 motion to dismiss the complaint for lack of personal jurisdiction pursuant to Federal Rule of
20 Civil Procedure 12(b)(2) and for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted
21 pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) - a potentially dispositive motion. In
22 light of defendant's pending motion, the Court asks the parties to consider the attached
23 "Consent to Assignment or Request for Reassignment," make an election, and e-file the
24 consent or request for reassignment by no later than August 15, 2005.
25 IT IS SO ORDERED.
