Mayer v. Mutual of Omaha Life Insurance Company

Filing 18

ORDER of Recusal directing reassignment to another judge. By Judge Philip A. Brimmer on 08/17/2009. (sah, )

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO Judge Philip A. Brimmer Civil Case No. 09-cv-01638-PAB-MJW SEAN MAYER, Plaintiff, v. MUTUAL OF OMAHA INSURANCE COMPANY, Defendant.

ORDER OF RECUSAL

This matter is before me on review of the file. One of my sisters is a partner at the law firm of Holland & Hart, counsel for defendant Mutual of Omaha Insurance Company. For this reason, it would be inappropriate for me to preside over this case. Accordingly, I will recuse myself. It is therefore ORDERED that the judge's file be returned to the clerk's office for the case to be reassigned by random draw. It is further ORDERED that the hearing scheduled for September 23, 2009 at 1:30 p.m. is vacated. DATED August 17, 2009. BY THE COURT:

s/Philip A. Brimmer PHILIP A. BRIMMER United States District Judge
