ORDER OF RECUSAL

THIS MATTER arises sua sponte. The undersigned finds that grounds exist pursuant to
28 U.S.C. § 455 and the CODE OF CONDUCT FOR UNITED STATES JUDGES which require her
recusal in this matter. In particular, a staff member of the undersigned judge has personal
knowledge of one or more of the litigants due to her prior employment with the Colorado
Department of Corrections. Accordingly, it is
ORDERED that the undersigned judge hereby recuses herself from hearing this matter.
The Clerk shall randomly reassign this case to another judge of this Court and shall appropriately
adjust the “draw” of future cases.
DATED this 31st day of January, 2012.
BY THE COURT:

Marcia S. Krieger
United States District Judge
