If any party chooses the District Judge Option and requests a reassignment, the case will be randomly reassigned to a United States District Judge. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c)(2), the parties are free to withhold consent without adverse consequences. No judge will be informed of a party’s response unless all parties have consented to the assignment of the case to a United States Magistrate Judge.
