On April 5, 2013, attorney Paul R. Hansmeier entered his notice of appearance as counsel of record for Objector-Appellant Padraigin Browne. At that time, Hansmeier's application for admission to the bar of the Ninth Circuit was pending. On May 15, 2013, the USCA ordered that Hansmeier's application for admission be held in abeyance pending the outcome of his referral to the Minnesota State Bar and the Central District of California Standing Committee on Discipline in Ingenuity 13 LLC v. Doe, No. 2:12-cv-8333-ODW (JCx) (C.D. Cal. May 6, 2013) (Order Imposing Sanctions). Because Hansmeier's application for admission to the USCA's bar cannot be approved at this time, he cannot represent parties in this appeal. Accordingly, within 14 days after the filing of this order, Hansmeier shall withdraw from this case. Hansmeier's notice of withdrawal shall contain proof that he has informed Browne that Hansmeier cannot represent him in the USCA and that Browne may obtain new counsel or represent himself. Hansmeier's notice of withdrawal shall also contain contact information for Browne unless a notice of substitution of counsel has been filed by the time Hansmeier files his notice of withdrawal.
