UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, v. IVAN SALAZAR, Defendant.
ORDER
CAM FERENBACH UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
Before the Court is the motion to dismiss counsel (ECF No. 160).
David Fischer, Esq. was appointed as counsel of record for Salazar on November 4, 2020. (ECF No. 67). Salazar filed the instant letter on his own behalf. (ECF No. 160).
Pursuant to Local Rule IA 11-6(a), “[a] party who has appeared by attorney cannot while so represented appear or act in the case. This means that once an attorney makes an appearance on behalf of a party, that party may not personally file a document with the court; all filings must thereafter be made by the attorney.” Defendant may not file motions on his own behalf. See Local Rule IA 11-6(a).
Accordingly, The Clerk of Court is directed to STRIKE Salazar's letter ECF No. 160 from the docket.
