DECISION AND ORDER
Defendant, Howard Dennis Kelly ("Kelly"), stands accused of a single-count indictment charging escape from a federal institutional facility. Counsel was appointed to represent Kelly. Pending before the Court are two motions filed by Kelly, pro se, a motion to dismiss (Dkt. #39) and a motion styled pro se motion, Rule 12(b), defective indictment. Since Kelly has counsel, he must not file pro se motions. If he has appointed counsel, that lawyer should represent him and file pleadings and the Court not entertain pro se motions. I have, nevertheless, reviewed the above-referenced motions and find them to be without merit. Therefore, both motions are denied.
CONCLUSION
Defendant's pro se motions to dismiss (Dkt. #39 and Dkt. #42) are in all respects denied.IT IS SO ORDERED.
