IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE DISTRICT OF ARIZONA

State of Arizona, et al.,

Plaintiff,

v. 

Michael D Lansky LLC, et al.,

Defendants.

No. CV-23-00233-TUC-CKJ

ORDER 

On December 5, 2023, counsel of record for the State of Vermont, Mr. Edwin L. 

“Ted” Hobson, sent a notice to withdraw as counsel. He did not caption the document or 

file it electronically. At docketing, it was treated as a motion. On December 6, 2023, 

counsel of record for the State of Nebraska, Michaela J. Hohwieler, filed a Motion to 

Withdraw. Both attorneys failed to comply with the United States District Court Rules for 

the District of Arizona, Rule 83.3(b), as follows:

(4) Where there has been a change of counsel in the same law firm or 

governmental law office, an order of substitution or association is not 

required; the new attorney must file a notice of substitution or association. 

The notice shall state the names of the attorneys who are the subjects of the 

substitution or association and the current address and e-mail address of the 

attorney substituting or associating. 

Accordingly,
