Case No. 1:21-cv-01530-JLT-BAM
ORDER GRANTING REQUEST TO
ALLOW PHYSICIANS’ ADVOCATES,
CHARLES BOND, AND KARINA
JOHNSON TO WITHDRAW AS
COUNSEL FOR PLAINTIFF GAIL
MALLARD-WARREN, M.D.
(Doc. 39)

15

Currently before the Court is the request of Physicians’ Advocates, Charles Bond, and

16

Karina Johnson to withdraw as counsel for Plaintiff Gail Mallard-Warren, M.D. in this matter.

17

(Doc. 39.) Although styled as a request to withdraw, and signed by Plaintiff and Plaintiff’s

18

counsel of record, the document is effectively a notice of withdrawal. A motion to withdraw is

19

not required as Plaintiff will continue to be represented by other counsel of record in this matter.

20

See Local Rule 182(d). Daniel Horowitz remains as counsel for Plaintiff.

21

Accordingly, for good cause appearing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Physicians’

22

Advocates, Charles Bond, and Karina Johnson are withdrawn as counsel of record for Plaintiff in

23

this case. The Clerk of the Court is directed to terminate Physicians’ Advocates, Charles Bond,

24

and Karina Johnson as counsel for Plaintiff in the above-captioned matter.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
