Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit December 5, 2003, 01-36045 (Denise Kay Anderson v. Woodcreek Venture Ltd James May Linda Brown Curtis Brown)

WALLACE, Senior Circuit Judge:

Anderson appeals from a magistrate judge’s order denying her motion for a new trial in her action against WoodCreek Venture, Ltd. and three of its employees (collectively, WoodCreek). Because the record casts into doubt whether Anderson voluntarily consented to the magistrate judge’s jurisdiction to enter judgment as required by 28 U.S.C.
