Chavez v. International Business Machines

Filing 44

ORDER of Recusal by Judge Philip A. Brimmer on 11/12/14. (dkals, )

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO
Judge Philip A. Brimmer
Civil Action No. 13-cv-02734-PAB-CBS
RUDOLPH CHAVEZ,
Plaintiff,
v.
INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES,
Defendant.

ORDER OF RECUSAL

This matter is before me on review of the file. Following the death of my father, I
have become a trustee regarding certain stock. I have recently learned that shares of
International Business Machines are included in that stock. Pursuant to Canon 3C(3)(c)
of the Code of Conduct for United States Judges and 28 U.S.C. § 455, it would
therefore 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.

DATED November 12, 2014.
BY THE COURT:

s/Philip A. Brimmer

United States District Judge
