UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

----oo0oo----

In re: 

ESTRELLA A. KINCAID AND

JAMES M. KINCAID,

Debtors.

ESTRELLA A. KINCAID AND Civ. S-06-1682 WBS

JAMES M. KINCAID

Bankruptcy No. 05-2130-B-7

Appellants

v.

SUSAN K. SMITH ORDER

Appellee.

----oo0oo----

The Kincaids have filed a Motion to Reconsider this

court’s Order of December 21, 2006, denying their motion to

reopen their appeal, and an Emergency Motion for Temporary

Restraining Order, enjoining the assigned Bankruptcy Judge from

continuing to preside and assigning another judge to preside over

this matter.

Although the Kincaids criticize this court for adopting

the bankruptcy judge’s conclusion regarding their dilatory

tactics, their motion does nothing to affect this court’s reasons

for denying their motion to reopen the appeal, particularly the

Kincaids’ utter failure to keep the court informed of their

change of address. Further, they have presented no justifiable

reason why this court ought to intercede in the business of the

Bankruptcy Court to reassign this case to another judge. Judge

Holman is fully qualified to handle this case, and there has been

no sufficient showing of bias or other reasons for his

disqualification.

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the motion of Estrella A.

Kincaid and James M. Kincaid for reconsideration of this court’s

order denying their motion for relief from judgment and to

reconsider this court’s order denying their motion for

reconsideration of their appeal, and their motion for a temporary

restraining order restraining the assigned bankruptcy judge from

acting in this case and assigning the matter to another

bankruptcy judge be, and the same hereby are, DENIED.

DATED: January 8, 2007
