UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

IN RE: National Association of Music

Merchants, Musical Instruments and

Equipment Antitrust Litigation

MDL No. 2121

(USDC Case Nos. 09cv2002,

09cv2146, 09cv2151, 09cv2211,

09cv2267, 09cv2285, 09cv2332,

09cv2418, 09cv2423)

In member case 09cv2423, Seiler v. Guitar Center, Inc., Plaintiff Seiler requested that

the appearance of Charles E. Tompkins, Esq., be withdrawn as he is no longer with the law

firm representing Seiler. The remaining attorneys of record will continue to represent Seiler.

An appeal is now pending. “As a general rule, the filing of a notice of appeal divests

a district court of jurisdiction over those aspects of the case involved in the appeal.” Stein

v. Wood, 127 F.3d 1187, 1189 (9th Cir. 1997). The unopposed request is therefore

GRANTED, but only with respect to Tompkins’ appearance in this Court and not with respect

to any appearance he may have made before the Ninth Circuit.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

DATED: February 20, 2013
