On November 14, 2011, the Court issued an Order allowing defense counsel to 1

withdraw representation for defendant Jakk’d Holdings, LLC [Docket No. 25]. Because

Jakk’d Holdings, LLC (“Jakk’d”) is a company, it cannot proceed pro se. See Harrison

v. Wahatoyas, LLC, 253 F.3d 552, 556 (10th Cir. 2001). The Court ordered Jakk’d to

show cause why default should not enter for its failure to retain new counsel [Docket

No. 26]. Jakk’d failed to respond to the Order to Show Cause, and the Court directed

the clerk of the court to enter default [Docket No. 50]. On June 4, 2012, default entered

against Jakk’d [Docket No. 51].
