This matter comes before the Court on Mr. James Fishel’s motion to withdraw as
United States District Court
Northern District of California
11
counsel for Plaintiff Frank Robertson. On December 30, 2015, Mr. Fishel filed a consent
12
form signed by Mr. Robertson, stating that Mr. Robertson now intends to represent
13
himself. On January 4, 2016, Defendants filed a statement of non-opposition to the motion
14
to withdraw and also asked the Court to set a deadline by which Mr. Robertson must file
15
and serve his second amended complaint.
16
With good cause appearing, the Court now GRANTS Mr. Fishel’s motion to
17
withdraw. Unless and until he finds substitute counsel, Mr. Robertson will now represent
18
himself in this matter.
19
The undersigned no longer hears non-prisoner matters involving pro se litigants and
20
therefore requests that this case be reassigned. The Court leaves it to the discretion of the
21
newly assigned judge to set a deadline for Mr. Robertson to file his second amended
22
complaint.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
