LR IA 10-6(c) requires that any stipulation to substitute attorneys shall be by leave of court and shall bear the signature of the attorneys and the client represented.

LR IA 10-6(d) also provides that the substitution of an attorney "shall not alone be reason for delay of pretrial proceedings, discovery, the trial, or any hearing in this case." All other counsel for Righthaven shall continue representation. The Complaint (Dkt. #1) was filed on June 25, 2010. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiff's request to substitute Shawn A.
