ORDER SUBSTITUTING PARTY
ROY PERCY, UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
This matter is before the court on the parties' joint ore tenus motion to substitute Wal-Mart Stores East, LP for the defendant incorrectly named in the complaint as Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. The court finds the request is well taken and should be GRANTED. Wal-Mart Stores East, LP is substituted as the defendant in place of Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. The Clerk of Court is directed to change the style on the docket to reflect the new, properly designated defendant, and the parties are directed to observe this change in future filings.
SO ORDERED.
