ORDER

Counsel for Plaintiff has filed a Declaration [Doc. 22] with the Court, seeking

permission to substitute non-trial counsel to appear on behalf of Plaintiff at the Preliminary

Pretrial Conference before this Court on January 16, 2007.

While the reasons for the request are understandable, counsel used an inappropriate

vehicle to bring the matter to the Court's attention. Declarations are made in support of a

motion, but, under the rules of procedure, do not substitute for a motion. Moreover, counsel

does not explain why she can not appear by telephone along with other counsel, who have

properly been admitted to represent the Plaintiff in this case. Regretfully,

Because the Declaration [Doc. 22] is not a proper moving document,

IT IS ORDERED striking the Declaration with leave to file a motion. 

DATED this 20th day of December, 2006.
