Civil Action No. 07-cv-00608-RPM
08-04-2011
ROSEMARY DRISCOLL, Plaintiff, v. ERIC A.M. DENNIS, CLARK C. GRIFFITH and LAW OFFICE OF CLARK C. GRIFFITH, A Minnesota Professional Association, Defendants.
ORDER PERMITTING CLARK C. GRIFFITH TO PARTICIPATE IN TRIAL AS
WITNESS AND COUNSEL
In this civil action in which Clark C. Griffith is a defendant and has been counsel for defendant Eric A.M. Dennis and because Mr. Griffith is also expected to testify as a witness, a dual role which is normally inappropriate, but because Mr. Griffith has been apparently unable to obtain counsel and because of the age of this case any further delay in proceeding with the trial scheduled to begin on Monday, August 8, 2011, would be prejudicial and because this is a trial to the Court, it is now
ORDERED that Clark C. Griffith will be permitted to participate at trial both as counsel for the defendants and as a witness.
BY THE COURT:
Richard P. Matsch, Senior District Judge
