August 21, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 24 ORDER: Plaintiffs in this action have filed a #19 Motion for Preliminary Injunction seeking equitable relief in the form of an order prohibiting the 11 individual and limited liability company Defendants from engaging in the residential and commercial construction business. Plaintiffs' Motion does not allege that their Motion is time-sensitive. Nevertheless, motions for preliminary injunctions are inherently time-sensitive. See Flynt Distrib. Co., Inc. v. Harvey, 734 F.2d 1389, 1394 (9th Cir. 1984) ("The urgency of obtaining a preliminary injunction necessitates a prompt determination...."); Star Creations Inv. Co., Ltd. v. Alan Amron Dev., Inc., No. CIV. A. 95-4328, 1995 WL 495126, at *10 (E.D. Pa. Aug. 18, 1995) (referring to "the urgency that necessitates a prompt determination of the preliminary injunction application"). This action has been assigned to the undersigned Magistrate Judge under the consent provisions of 28 U.S.C. 636(c)(1). However, only one party, defendant Zachary Newland, has consented to the jurisdiction of the magistrate judge as required by that section. (Doc. #23 .) Given the large number of remaining parties, it will take some time for those magistrate judge elections to be accomplished. Thus, at present, the undersigned lacks jurisdiction to promptly consider the current Motion. Accordingly, the Clerk of Court shall reassign this case to an Article III judge of this Court for further proceedings on Plaintiffs' #29 Motion for Preliminary Injunction. Signed by Judge John M. Conroy on 8/21/2020. (This is a text-only Order)(eh)
