The United States Court of Federal Claims
No: 04-254 C February 27, 2006

LIBERTY MUTUAL INSURANCE CO.,
Plaintiff, v.

THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Defendant. ORDER CONSOLIDATING CASES The plaintiff in this case is a surety seeking reimbursement of payments it made on behalf of its insured, Enron Federal Solutions, Inc. ("EFSI"), pursuant to a payment bond required under the Miller Act, 40 U.S.C. § 270 et seq., for EFSI's contract (No. DACA51-99R-006) with defendant. On September 15, 2005, EFSI filed a complaint against defendant in this court (Case No. 051000C), along with a Rule 40.2 notice of directly related case identifying this case as one "involv[ing] the same contract." See RCFC 40.2(a)(1)(B). Mindful of the interests of efficiency that might be achieved by consolidating these two cases, the court hereby ORDERS that this case be consolidated with Enron Federal Solutions, Inc. v. United States, No. 05-1000 (filed Sept. 15, 2005) pursuant to RCFC 42(a). Hereafter, the case style for all future filings in this matter shall be: "Enron Federal Solutions, Inc., et. al., Plaintiffs, v. The United States of America, Defendant." No. 05-1000 C (04254 consolidated). s/
