Case Assigned to Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly. (zljn)

MINUTE ORDER. The Court is in receipt of the #6 Consent Motion for Reassignment. Defendants explain that the case should be returned to the Calendar Committee for reassignment because it is not a related case to 22-cv-2481 according to LCvR 40.5(a)(4), contrary to what Plaintiffs previously indicated in their #2 Notice. The parties are not the same and the cases concern different licensing schemes. The motion indicates that the Plaintiffs now "recognize their error and consent to reassignment." Accordingly, the Court GRANTS the #6 Motion and ORDERS that the case be returned to the Calendar Committee for random reassignment. Signed by Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly on 6/21/23. (lcckk3)
