ORDER OF RECUSAL
The undersigned hereby RECUSES himself from the above-entitled action.

WHEREFORE, it is
ORDERED that the Clerk enter this Order of Recusal for the undersigned; and it is further
ORDERED that the Clerk shall randomly reassign this case to another United States District Judge; and it is further
ORDERED that the Clerk shall serve a copy of this Order on the parties and the United States District Judge to whom the case is assigned.
