ORDER
Donald P. Jacobs moves to withdraw as counsel for
Craig Thorner and Virtual Reality Feedback Corporation.
Federal Circuit Rule 47.3(a) allows an individual to
represent himself or herself, but prohibits a corporation,
partnership, organization, or other legal entity from doing
so. See Int’l Inst. for Fundamental Studies, Inc. v. United
States, 222 Ct. Cl. 626, 630-31 (1980).
Upon consideration thereof,
It Is Ordered That:
(1) The motion is granted.
(2) New counsel for Virtual Reality Feedback Corpo-
ration shall file an entry of appearance within 60 days of
the date of this order. Craig Thorner must either apply to
appeal pro se or have new counsel file an entry of appear-
ance within 60 days of the date of this order. Failure to
do so will result in dismissal of the appeal.
(3) The appellants' opening brief is due within 120
days of the date of this order.
