Plaintiff Eric Wheeler, a state prisoner, commenced this civil rights action pursuant to 28
18
U.S.C. § 1983, proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis. On February 8, 2016, at the telephonic
19
trial confirmation hearing, the court found that the appointment of counsel was warranted in this
20
case and inquired whether plaintiff would accept appointed counsel. (Doc. No. 263.) Plaintiff
21
indicated he would. (Id.) Accordingly, on February 23, 2016, the court appointed attorneys
22
Mordecai D. Boone and Daniel H. Solomon of Dentons US, LLP to represent plaintiff pro bono.
23
(Doc. No. 272.)
Thereafter, on March 10, 2016, plaintiff Wheeler attempted to lodge with the court a table
24
25
of trial exhibits.1 Plaintiff is advised that he is no longer proceeding pro se in this action but

Plaintiff has also filed other documents with the court following the appointment of pro bono
counsel on his behalf. (See Doc. Nos. 276, 277,281, 283 and 284.) The court will disregard and
further filing by plaintiff on his own behalf.

rather is now represented by counsel. Consequently, any filings with the court must now be done

so electronically by and through his attorneys. See Local Rule 133(a) (“Unless excused by the
3
Court or by the electronic filing procedures set forth in these Rules, attorneys shall file all
4
documents electronically pursuant to those Rules.”) (emphasis added).
Accordingly, the court DIRECTS the Clerk of the Court to return plaintiff’s a table of trial
5
6
exhibits and further advises that plaintiff consult with his attorneys regarding any future
7
documents he wishes them to file with the court.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
