Before the Court is the “Stipulation and [Proposed] Order Re Extension of Time of
Pending Deadlines and Counsels’ Motion to Withdraw,” filed June 24, 2015, by (1) Corey,
Luzaich, de Ghetaldi, Nastari & Riddle, LLP, the Law Offices of Parviz Darabi, and
Alvarenga Law (collectively, the “Corey Law Firm”), as counsel for third-party defendants
Hernandez Janitorial Service, Professional CCS Cleaning Services, and JCR Janitorial,
and (2) defendant/third-party plaintiff Capital Contractors, Inc. Having read and considered
the stipulation, the Court rules as follows.
By the instant stipulation, the parties request the Court deem the motion to withdraw
as counsel for the individual plaintiffs, filed March 26, 2015, by the Corey Law Firm, and
granted April 22, 2015, to include a request that the Corey Law Firm be permitted to

1

withdraw as counsel for third-party defendants Hernandez Janitorial Service, Professional

2

CCS Cleaning Services, and JCR Janitorial, and, further, that the Court amend its order of

3

April 22, 2015, to grant the motion to withdraw as so amended.

4

Under the Local Rules of this District, “[c]ounsel may not withdraw from an action

5

until relieved by order of Court after written notice has been given reasonably in advance to

6

the client and to all other parties who have appeared in the case.” See Civil L.R. 11-5(a).

7

Although the docket indicates the stipulation has been served through the ECF system on

8

all other parties who have appeared and remain in the action, there is no entry in the

9

docket reflecting such notice was given to Hernandez Janitorial Service, Professional CCS

10
11

Cleaning Services, and JCR Janitorial.
Accordingly, the Corey Law Firm is hereby DIRECTED to provide to Hernandez

12

Janitorial Service, Professional CCS Cleaning Services, and JCR Janitorial written notice of

13

the motion to withdraw, filed March 26, 2015, and the stipulation, filed June 24, 2015, and

14

to file, no later than July 17, 2015, proof of such service.1 Additionally, the Corey Law Firm

15

shall file, no later than July 17, 2015, the last known address and telephone number of

16

each third-party defendant for whom they wish to withdraw as counsel.

17

IT IS SO ORDERED.

The Court notes that the Third-Party Complaint, filed June 27, 2014, names four
third-party defendants, specifically, Hernandez Cleaning Service, Hernandez Janitorial
Service, Professional CCS Cleaning Services, and JCR Janitorial. The instant stipulation,
however, does not include any reference to third-party defendant Hernandez Cleaning
Service. If the Corey Law Firm represents Hernandez Cleaning Service and seeks to
withdraw from such representation, the parties may wish to file and serve an amended
stipulation.
