The court is in receipt of defendant David Edlin’s Notice of Substitution of Counsel

14

and Proposed Order. In view of the pending motions for summary judgment, and the

15

impending pretrial and trial dates currently set in this action, the court declines to approve

16

defendant’s “Notice” absent a properly noticed motion. To the extent defendant’s

17

submission constitutes an actionable request, it is accordingly DENIED.

18

Defendant is furthermore instructed to seek relief by way of a properly noticed

19

motion for substitution pursuant to Civil Local Rule 7-2. In view of the looming pretrial

20

schedule, the court consents to hear the matter on an expedited basis. To that end, a

21

hearing date of April 25, 2012 at 9:00 a.m. is available, should defendant proceed by way

22

of duly noticed motion. Any response to defendant’s motion for substitution shall be filed

23

no later than April 16, 2012. Any reply brief shall be filed no later than April 19, 2012.

24

IT IS SO ORDERED.
