We have the motion of Theodore Hoppe to withdraw from the representation of Linda Sue Belcher, the Hale defendants, and the Sankey defendants. We have Defendant Taitz’s motion for Rule 11 sanction. We have Defendant Taitz’s motion to dismiss in response to plaintiffs’ motion for TRO, and we have the motion to dismiss with prejudice and to enjoin Phillip Berg, which is filed by a non-party, a J.

First, the motion to dismiss with prejudice, filed by a non-party, that will be dismissed and will be denied, in that a non-party cannot participate in this proceeding without intervention. No motion for intervention having been filed, the motion is denied. We have the motion of Mr. Hoppe to withdraw. No objections were received to that motion, so the motion will be granted, and Mr. Hoppe will be allowed
