On April 7, 2010, Defendant filed a motion to vacate the

clerk’s entry of default. (Docket No. 10.) However, a review of a 

filing in this case indicates I should recuse myself as the presiding

judge. C.f. United States v. Holland, 519 F.3d 909, 913 (9th Cir.

2008) (stating that the purpose of the recusal statute “is to avoid

even the appearance of partiality.”) Therefore, I recuse myself, and

the Clerk of the Court shall reassign this case to another judge. The

hearing on Defendant’s motion currently set for May 17, 2010 is

vacated.

Dated: May 11, 2010
