ORDER STRIKING PRO SE DOCUMENT
JAMES L. ROBART, District Judge.
Plaintiff Isatu Ville filed a pro se document with the court (Letter (Dkt. # 18)) even though she is represented by counsel Matthew Furness (see Not. of Appearance (Dkt. # 14) at 1). Under Local Rule 83.2(b)(5), "[w]hen a party is represented by an attorney of record in a case, the party cannot appear or act on his or her own behalf in that case, or take any step therein, until after the party requests by motion to proceed on his or her own behalf." Local Rules W.D. Wash. LCR 83.2(b)(5); see also Le v. Almager, No. C 08-03293 SBA, 2013 WL 415632, at *1 (N.D. Cal. Jan. 31, 2013) ("A court need not consider pro se motions filed by a party who remains represented by counsel."). Ms. Ville has not filed a motion to proceed on her own behalf. (See Dkt.) If Ms. Ville would like to do so, she must first follow the procedures outlined in Local Rule 83.2(b). See Local Rules W.D. Wash. LCR 83.2(b). Thus, the court STRIKES Ms. Ville's pro se document (Dkt. # 18).
