Case No. 2:12-cv-00355-GMN-PAL
ORDER
(Mtn to Withdraw - Dkt. #12)

12
13

This matter is before the court on the Motion to Withdraw as Counsel of Record (Dkt. #12) filed

14

September 17, 2012. Robert D. Vannah and Tamara V. Lile seek to withdraw as counsel of record for

15

Plaintiff Regina Honey. The Motion represents that there is a substantial disagreement between

16

Plaintiff and her counsel. Local Rule IA 10-6 provides that “no withdrawal . . . shall be approved if

17

delay of discovery, the trial or any hearing in the case would result.” Plaintiff filed her complaint in

18

state court on January 20, 2012, and Defendant filed a Petition for Removal (Dkt. #1) on March 5,

19

2012. Discovery closes on December 3, 2012.

20

Having reviewed and considered the matter, and for good cause shown,

21

IT IS ORDERED:

22

1.

The Motion to Withdraw as Counsel of Record (Dkt. #12) is GRANTED.

23

2.

Plaintiff shall have until October 24, 2012, in which to retain new counsel who shall file

24

a notice of appearance in accordance with the Local Rules of Practice or to file a

25

statement that she will be proceeding pro se.

26

Failure to comply with this order may result in for sanctions, including a
