GLORIA M. NAVARRO, Chief District Judge.
Sixteen lawsuits alleging violations of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1692, et seq., and Nevada Revised Statutes Chapter 598 have been filed against Aargon Collection Agency, Inc., and Armand Fried in this district.

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that each of these cases shall be TRANFERRED to Chief Judge Gloria M. Navarro and Magistrate Judge Nancy J. Koppe, who were assigned the earliest opened case, for all further proceedings:
