(b) Consents to Proceed Before a U.S. Magistrate Judge

Effective March 6, 2017, individual party Consents to Proceed Before a U.S. Magistrate Judge are to be filed electronically. See Standing Order 2017-4.

To file a consent to jurisdiction by a U.S. Magistrate Judge, use the Consent to Juridiction by Magistrate Judge – by Party event, which is found by clicking Civil and selecting Consents under the Other Filings heading. Individual party consents do not include the name of the filer, and the PDF attached to the entry is restricted to protect the voluntariness of the party's consent under 28 U.S.C. § 636(c)(2).

Pursuant to Standing Order 06-mc-9130, the United States has consented to U.S. Magistrate Judge jurisdiction in Social Security cases (see Standing Order for details). Accordingly, docketing of the Consent to Jurisdiction by Magistrate Judge – by Party event in a case with NOS code 863, 864, or 865 will be docketed as Consent by All Parties to Jurisdiction by U.S. Magistrate Judge.
