COUNTY OF ALAMEDA, et al., Case No. 15-cv-03416-TEH ORDER GRANTING MOTION TO WITHDRAW AND ORDER REQUESTING REASSIGNMENT Defendants. 8 9 10 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. 23 24 IT IS SO ORDERED. 25 26 27 28 Dated: 01/05/16 _____________________________________ THELTON E.
