ORDER
ROBERT CONRAD JR., District Judge
THIS MATTER is before the Court upon its own motion. An evidentiary hearing has been scheduled (Doc. No. 12: Order) on the petitioner’s motion to vacate sentence, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (Doc. No. 3).
Rule 8(c) of the Rules Governing Section 2255 Proceedings requires the appointment of counsel for such a hearing if the petitioner qualifies under 18 U.S.C. § 3006A. The petitioner has previously qualified for appointed counsel (W.D.N.C. Case No. 3:04cr22: Doc. No. 21), and the Court is not aware of any change in the petitioner’s financial status.
IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED that the Community Defender shall designate counsel promptly to represent the petitioner at the evidentiary hearing on her motion to vacate scheduled for April 23, 2007, at 9:30 a.m.
The Clerk is directed to certify copies of this order to the defendant, the Community Defender, and to the United States Attorney.
