UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, v. MAHDI HOWARD, Defendant.
ORDER GRANTING STIPULATION FOR SUBSTITUTION OF COUNSEL
DAVID M. LAWSON, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE.
This matter is before the Court on a stipulation for substitution of counsel for the defendant. According to the terms of the stipulation, attorney Haralambos D. Mihas will substitute as counsel of record for the defendant in place of attorney Sanford Schulman. The Court has considered the stipulation and finds that it should be granted.
Accordingly, it is ORDERED that the stipulation for substitution of counsel (ECF No. 35) is GRANTED. Attorney Sanford Schulman's appearance as counsel of record for the defendant is WITHDRAWN, and he is discharged from any further responsibility to the Court in this matter.
It is further ORDERED that the defendant's motion for withdrawal of attorney Sanford Schulman (ECF No. 36) is DENIED as moot.
