In the Matter of the Application of

AHMED MOHIDIN, CPA, and GEORGE WEINBAUM, CPA,

ORDER SCHEDULING BRIEFS

Ahmed Mohidin, CPA, and George Weinbaum, CPA, have each filed an application 

under Section 19(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for review of action taken by the 

Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”).

1

 PCAOB filed a copy of the index 

to the record on February 22, 2024.

2

Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that a brief in support of each application for review shall 

be filed by April 11, 2024.

3 A brief in opposition shall be filed by May 13, 2024, and any reply 

briefs shall be filed by May 28, 2024. Failure to file a brief in support of the application may 

result in dismissal of this review proceeding.4 No briefs other than those specified in this 

schedule may be filed without leave of the Commission.5 

1 15 U.S.C. § 7217(c)(2) (providing that generally 15 U.S.C. § 78s(d)(2) and (e)(1) will 

govern review by the Commission of final disciplinary sanctions imposed by PCAOB). Pursuant 

to Section 105(e)(1) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, an application for review automatically 

stays the sanction imposed by PCAOB. See id. § 7215(e)(1). On March 1, 2024, PCAOB filed a 

motion to terminate the stay, which will be resolved by separate order of the Commission.
