ORDER

Before the Court is Defendant KimberlyCastro, Special Administrator of the Estate of John

A. Castro’s Special Appearance and Motion to Dismiss. (Doc. 7). Kimberly Castro appears

administrator of the Estate of John A. Castro had not yet been appointed. The Court today granted

Plaintiffs’ request to amend their complaint to reflect Kimberly Castro’s appointment as Special

Administrator. As a result, Kimberly Castro’s Motion to Dismiss should be and hereby is DENIED.

IT IS SO ORDERED, this 20th day of September, 2006.
