ORDER GRANTING PLAINTIFFS'

REQUEST TO SUBSTITUTE

ATTORNEY OF RECORD

(Docket No. 78)

On July 17, 2012, Plaintiffs Chang Bee Yang and Lau Yang ("Plaintiffs") filed a request to substitute their current counsel of record, Douglas V. Thornton, Esq., of the law firm Perkins, Mann & Everett, and represent themselves in propria persona. (Doc. 78.) Counsel Robert W. Branch, Esq., of the law firm Perkins, Mann & Everett, agreed to this substitution. (Doc. 78.)

The Court's current information indicates that both Mr. Thornton and Mr. Branch represent Plaintiffs. It is apparent that Plaintiffs are seeking to substitute themselves in propria persona in place of all attorneys from the law firm of Perkins, Mann & Everett. As such, Mr. Thornton and Mr. Branch will be terminated as counsel of record for Plaintiffs and Plaintiffs will be substituted as representing themselves in propria persona.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Plaintiffs' substitution request is GRANTED;
2. Counsel Robert Branch, Esq., and Douglas Thornton, Esq., are terminated as Plaintiffs' counsel of record;
3. Plaintiffs Chang Bee Yang and Lau Yang are substituted as representing themselves in propria persona; and
4. The Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to serve this order on Plaintiffs at 10966 E. Promontory Way, Clovis, CA 93619.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
