Case No. 2:12-cv-01860-MMD-GWF
ORDER

This matter comes before the Court on Augusta Massey, Esq.’s Motion to Withdraw as

15

Local Counsel for Defendants Rusty Lee and Peggy Horrocks (#197), filed on February 12, 2014.

16

Ms. Massey represents that continued representation of Defendants would impose an unreasonable

17

financial burden on her law firm. Trent Seegmiller, Esq. shall remain as pro hac vice counsel. The

18

Court finds that Ms. Massey has shown good cause to withdraw as local counsel. Furthermore,

19

under Local Rule 7-2(d), the failure of an opposing party to file points and authorities in response

20

to any motion shall constitute a consent to the granting of the motion. The time to oppose the

21

instant Motion has expired, and no opposition has been filed. Accordingly,

22

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Augusta Massey, Esq.’s Motion to Withdraw as Local

23

Counsel for Defendants Lee and Horrocks (#197) is granted.
