*To the extent Jenkins and Cunneen seek to appeal on behalf of
Ripswear, Inc., this court will not consider the appeal. Pro se
appellants may represent their own interests but not those of a
company they serve. See, e.g., Rowland v. California Men’s Colony,
506 U.S. 194, 201-02 (1993) (“It has been the law for the better
part of two centuries, for example, that a corporation may appear
in federal court only through licensed counsel.”).

PER CURIAM:
Storm Jenkins and Garrett Cunneen * appeal the district
court’s order imposing a preliminary injunction barring their
commercial interference between Asia Apparel, LLC, and its
customers, and further directing Appellants to cooperate in the
transfer of an internet domain name. We have reviewed the record
and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the
reasons stated by the district court. See Asia Apparel v.
Ripswear, No. CA-02-469-MU (W.D.N.C. Sept. 17, 2004). We deny
Appellants’ emergency motion for a stay as moot. We dispense with
oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are
adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument
would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
