ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF' " S MOTION FOR ORDER OF REFERENCE PURSUANT TO 28 U.S.C. 636"

THIS MATTER is before the Court on this pro se plaintiff' filing of August 18, s 2005, partially described above (Dkt. # 150), in which she requests this Court to reassign this case to a Magistrate Judge other the Magistrate Judge Coan. This motion appears to ask for essentially the same relief requested by plaintiff in her pro se filing of September 2, 2005 (Dkt. # 166) in which she requested this Court to stay proceedings in her case and to order the recusal of Magistrate Judge Coan from her case for alleged bias or prejudice. By Order entered on September 8, 2005 the Court denied plaintiff' request to recuse Magistrate Judge Coan. For the same reasons set s forth in that Order, and the lack of authority under Local Rule 72.2 for the relief sought, plaintiff' " s Motion for Order of Reference"(Dkt. # 150 ) is DENIED. DATED: October 17, 2005 BY THE COURT: s/ Phillip S. Figa _____________________________ Phillip S. Figa United States District Judge
