08/20/2002Order/ProceduralFiled Order Granting Motion. to Substitute filed May 28, 2002. Paul M. Gaudet, respondent's counsel, filed his response to our July 8, 2002, order on July 18, 2002. Appellant's response to our July 8, 2002, order was filed on July 25, 2002. We grant the motion to substitute Ms. Wolfe in the place of Leon Hardison, Jr., as personal representative of Leon Hardison, Sr. for the purposes of this appeal. The clerk of this court shall modify the caption of this appeal to be consistent with the caption on this order. We elect to treat the statement by Mr. Gaudet, that the personal representative should be required to obtain counsel for representation in this matter, be treated as a motion to withdraw as counsel for respondent. The briefing of this appeal was completed on May 14, 2001, and that this appeal was submitted for decision on December 27, 2001, on the briefs filed with this court. Because it appears that no additional documents need to be filed with this court, we deny the motion to withdraw. 02-14193
