United States Ninth Circuit
COLE v. US DIST. COURT FOR THE DIST. OF IDAHO (TCI MEDIA SERVS.), 03-73027
Mandamus relief is denied despite the clear error of the magistrate judge in summarily disqualifying petitioners' counsel. When review of a magistrate judge's decision is available as a matter of right by motion for reconsideration before a district court, the opportunity should be taken before extraordinary review by mandamus is sought.
