“All filed by Broden in Federal District Court in Western District of Texas, Austin;”

For heaven’s sake, get some of those cases in other jurisdictions; otherwise, a judge will combine them into one
case, and then the cases can be “controlled” to suit the government.

There is no justification for that. All the parties and the actions complained of are in the same state, and if one did file in a different federal court in the same state, defendants would move to have the case transferred to one court. Sometimes that happens even when the cases are all over the US - it happened in the set of 20+ complaints about federal snooping/wiretapping without a warrant.

There are good arguments why he can't do that. In particular, each person has his own personal history and relationship with a biker club (or gang, if you are sympathetic to the control-freak point of view in harmony with the state), making the finding of probable cause unique to each individual.

In addition, damages for each will vary, due to their situations before and after being arrested.
