This matter is before the court on the Motion to Withdraw as Counsel of Record for Virka Skalij

(#22) filed February 1, 2013. Brian D. Nettles, Esq., and Samuel R. Mirkovick, Esq., of Nettles Law

able to effectively represent the Plaintiff in this matter. Specifically, the Plaintiff and Nettles have a
18
fundamental disagreement over how to proceed in this action.
