We vacate those portions of our orders of May 17, 2000 and July 25, 2000, imposing santions in the sums of $100.00 and $250.00 respectively, on attorney Joan Buckley.

Otherwise, district court shall order that within 30 days, appellant must retain counsel and counsel must enter an appearance in the district court.
