No. 1:14-cv-43-CLC-SKL

ORDER
Before the Court is a motion to substitute counsel [Doc. 95] filed by Attorneys B. Hart
Knight and H. Rowan Leathers III, seeking to be substituted in place of Attorney Efren Anthony
Compean, who is currently counsel of record for Defendant David L. Ruhling. Attorney Knight
represents that Attorney Compean was Defendant Ruhling’s counsel when the case was pending
before the United States District Court for the Central District of California, and further represents
that Attorney Compean is not admitted to practice before this Court. Attorneys Knight and
Leathers are admitted to practice in this District, and therefore Defendant seeks their substitution
in place of his former attorney.
Accordingly, the motion to substitute counsel [Doc. 95] is GRANTED. The Clerk is
DIRECTED to terminate Attorney Compean as counsel of record and to add Attorneys Knight
and Leathers as counsel of record for Defendant Ruhling.
SO ORDERED.
