ORDER




The defendant was summoned to appear on this date on this charge. However, because he has other
matters that he did appear for on September 8, 2014, the court is willing to give him the benefit of
confusion as to his obligation on this date with respect to this charge. The court previously appointed
Robert Peterson to represent him on other pending matters and does appoint him with respect to this
matter. The date for this defendant's appearance is continued to September 22, 2014 at 8:30 AM.
The defendant must either appear personally at that time or, alternatively, shall appear by counsel. If
neither of those occur, then on September 22, 2014, a warrants shall issue for the defendant's arrest
on this charge.
