| 2023-04-25 | 6 | Consent MOTION to Consolidate Cases by BUREAU OF LAND MANAGEMENT. (Attachments: # 1 Text of Proposed Order)(Berhane, Fithawi) (Entered: 04/25/2023) |
| 2023-04-27 | | MINUTE ORDER granting Defendant's 6 Consent Motion to Consolidate. Defendant, with Plaintiff's consent, seeks consolidation of this case with case number 23-cv-117 (CKK). Under Local Civil Rule 40.5(d), "[m]otions to consolidate cases assigned to different judges of this Court shall be heard and determined by the judge to whom the earlier-numbered case is assigned," which is this Court. Upon consideration of the "common question[s] of law [and] fact," Fed. R. Civ. P. 42(a), between these two cases, the Court finds that consolidation serves the interests of judicial economy, will not result in confusion or prejudice, and avoids the risk of inconsistent rulings. See Nat'l Sec. Counselors v. CIA , 322 F.R.D. 41, 43 (D.D.C. 2017); Judicial Watch, Inc. v. U.S. Dep't of Energy , 207 F.R.D. 8, 8-9 (D.D.C. 2002). Of note, the parties in both cases are identical, and Plaintiff consents to consolidation. Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that (1) American Wild Horse Campaign v. Bureau of Land Management (23-cv-115) and American Wild Horse Campaign v. Bureau of Land Management (23-cv-117) are CONSOLIDATED before this Court; (2) all pleadings, motions, or other papers relating to the consolidated cases shall be filed only on the docket for case number 23-cv-115; (3) the Clerk shall administratively close case number 23-cv-117 and transfer the parties to case number 23-cv-115; and (4) the parties shall NOT elect to spread text when filing on ECF, as this will result in repetitive docketing. It is further ORDERED that by May 11, 2023, the parties shall file a joint status report advising the Court on the status of the two FOIA requests at issue in the consolidated cases and propose a schedule for proceeding.
