IN RE ARDEN VAN UPP,

Debtor.

SAMUEL H. SLOAN,

Appellant,

v.

DAVID A. BRADLOW,

Appellee.

 /

No. C 10-00204 SI

No. C 10-00396 SI

ORDER DENYING “MOTION TO

WITHDRAW MOTION TO DISMISS

APPEALS AND TO REINSTATE

MOTIONS FOR TEMPORARY

RESTRAINING ORDER AND

PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION AND TO

WITHDRAW REFERENCE TO

BANKRUPTCY COURT”

On March 12, 2010, this Court entered an order and judgment dismissing these appeals with

prejudice for lack of standing. Thereafter, on March 24, 2010, debtor Arden Van Upp filed the present

motion, seeking to withdraw her own prior motion to dismiss these appeals and to reinstate two other

motions filed by Samuel H. Sloan: a motion for temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction,

and a motion to withdraw the reference to the bankruptcy court. 

In filing the present motion, Ms. Van Upp did not act through her counsel of record, Iain

Macdonald. In addition, judgment has been entered and these cases are now closed. Ms. Van Upp

cannot withdraw her motion to dismiss at this time, after it has already been granted and the case closed

as a result. Mr. Sloan’s motions cannot be reinstated because, as the Court has previously explained,

Mr. Sloan lacks standing to participate in these proceedings.

Ms. Van Upp’s motion is therefore DENIED. Ms. Van Upp is advised that no further filings will

be accepted in these closed cases. If Ms. Van Upp wishes to challenge the bankruptcy court’s rulings,

she may only do so by instituting a new appeal.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
