UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JAMES R. GOULD,

Plaintiff,

CASE NO. 07CV1039-LAB (WMC)

ORDER CONFIRMING CLAIM

DEADLINE; AND

ORDER SUBSTITUTING

COUNSEL

vs.

COMMISSIONER OF THE SOCIAL

SECURITY ADMINISTRATION,

Defendants.

On July 13, the Court issued an order explaining that it was considering rescinding

its award of attorney’s fees, and setting certain response deadlines. 

The Court proposed to set a deadline for making a claim to the fees that were

awarded. If any party objected to this proposal, they were to have filed written objections by

August 3. No party has objected, and the deadline for claiming all or part of the fees is

Friday, September 14, 2018. If Mary Mitchell, James Gould, or anyone else wishes to claim

all or part of the fees, they shall file a claim by that date. If no claims are filed, the fee award

will be rescinded.

Gould’s counsel also filed a motion to have Gould represent himself. That is, his

counsel would be permitted to withdraw, and Gould, pro se, would substitute in. If Gould

opposed this, he was ordered to file an opposition by August 10. (See Docket no. 57 at

1:21–23.) He has filed nothing, however.

For good cause, the motion by Bruce Wilson, Esq. to withdraw (Docket no. 56) is

GRANTED. James Gould is now proceeding pro se and will be required to comply with the

Court’s orders, including existing deadlines, just as if he were represented by counsel. The

Clerk shall update the docket to reflect this change.

It appears Gould’s old address is incorrect, and mail sent to him there was returned

as undeliverable. The Clerk is directed to update the docket to show Gould’s address as

provided in the amended certificate of service. (Docket no. 58.)

Bruce Wilson is ORDERED to provide a copy of this order to Gould. If he cannot

contact Gould, he should send a copy of this order to any street address(es) and email

address(es) he has for Gould. He need not send a copy to any address he knows to be

invalid or not current, however.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

DATED: August 27, 2018
