Lowrey v. Tilden

Ct. of Appeals remanded two appeals to Dist. Ct. due to lack of appropriate jurisdictional statement filed by parties that did not comply with court rules. Record showed that both cases were resolved by magistrate judges, but counsel failed to put in jurisdictional statements dates that parties had consented to magistrate judge hearing case as required by Circuit Rule 28(b). Ct. further noted that in one case, parties had failed to mention that decision from which appeal was being taken had been rendered by magistrate judge.
