THE COURT, being advised by the Government of the defendant's
stated intention of publishing discovery materials in this case
on the Internet, which discovery materials include voluminous
private information and personal addresses of various
individuals, HEREBY ORDERS that no materials disclosed by the
government as part of its discovery obligation shall be shared
by defense counsel with the defendant until further notice of
the court.


Comes now the Defendant, James Dalton Bell, who declares that
he is effectively and unwillingly unrepresented, and that
his 6th Amendment Right to Counsel has been repeatedly and
intentionally violated since on or about December 1, 2000.
Defendant Bell has repeatedly sent letters to the court asking
for substitute counsel, and two separate motions by attorney
Robert Leen have been essentially ignored since mid-
December, 2000.
