UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA
BENXING YUE,
Petitioner,
v.
CHRISTOPHER LAROSE, et al.,
Respondents.
Case No.: 26-cv-1391-JO-DDL
ORDER TRANSFERRING CASE
In the interest of “efficient administration of the judicial business of the district,”
see Civ. L.R. 40.1(a), and because the Court concludes that this case is related to Yue v.
Noem, et al., 26-cv-1328-JES-SBC (S.D. Cal. 2025), the Court directs the Clerk to
immediately reassign this case to Judge James E. Simmons, Jr. See Badea v. Cox, 931
F.2d 573, 575 (9th Cir. 1991) (“District court judges have broad discretion regarding
the assignment or reassignment of cases.”) (cleaned up); In re Marshall, 721 F.3d 1032,
1040 (9th Cir. 2013) (“[J]udges are vested with inherent authority to transfer cases
among themselves for the expeditious administration of justice.”) (cleaned up).
IT IS SO ORDERED.
