(Exhibit B)

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Sunil R. Harjani: Plaintiff represents on the civil cover sheet 2 that "This case is a refiling of case number 25-CV-10453 previously dismissed by Judge Harjani." Upon review of the record in 25-CV-10453, the case was not dismissed by Judge Harjani. In 25-CV-10453, the Plaintiff filed an amended complaint on 10/3/2025 against a single defendant and proceeded to litigate the matter until a final judgment was entered on 12/3/2025. Plaintiff identified incorrect information in the civil cover sheet. As such, this case has been improperly assigned to Judge Harjani under Local Rule 40.3(b)(2) because it is not a refiling of a dismissed case. The Clerk is directed to reassign this case pursuant to Local Rule 40.2(a). Plaintiff is cautioned to ensure this does not happen again in future cases. Mailed notice

MINUTE entry before the Executive Committee: Case reassigned to the Honorable Charles P. Kocoras for all further proceedings pursuant to Local Rule 40.2(a). Mailed notice
