  Quantum dots in the quantum Hall regime can have pairs of single Slater
determinant states that are degenerate in energy. We argue that these pairs of
many body states may give rise to a Kondo effect which can be mapped into an
ordinary Kondo effect in a fictitious magnetic field. We report on several
properties of this Kondo effect using scaling and numerical renormalization
group analysis. We suggest an experiment to investigate this Kondo effect.
