Plaintiff,

ORDER

L. ELDRIDGE, et al.,

Defendants.

17

Plaintiff is a state prisoner, proceeding through counsel, with a civil rights action pursuant

18

to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On May 11, 2020, plaintiff, himself, filed a motion for recusal of the

19

undersigned and the Honorable William B. Shubb. Because plaintiff is represented by counsel in

20

this action, he may only communicate with the court through counsel. For this reason, plaintiff’s

21

motion for recusal is disregarded.

22

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that plaintiff’s motion for recusal (ECF No.

23

134) is disregarded.

Dated: May 13, 2020
