The request for an extension of time was filed by the judgment debtor, acting pro se, despite the
fact that Kirk C. Davis has appeared as his attorney in this matter. The Court has considered both filings,
but Mr. Yin is advised that “[w]hen a party is represented by an attorney of record in a case, the party
cannot appear or act on his or her own behalf in that case, or take any step therein, until after the party
requests by motion to proceed on his or her own behalf, certifies in the motion that he or she has
provided copies of the motion to his or her current counsel and to the opposing party, and is granted an
order of substitution by the court terminating the party’s attorney as counsel and substituting the party in
to proceed pro se . . . .” LCR 83.2.
ORDER

Court is also directed to give this matter a civil action number and assign it in rotation. The Writ

3

of Garnishment shall remain in effect during the pendency of this action, but judgment shall not

be entered absent further order of the Court.
