Case No. 2:14-cv-01525-JCM-CWH

ORDER

Presently before the Court are Plaintiffs’ counsel Cal J. Potter IV, Esq.’s motion to withdraw

11

as attorney (ECF No. 47), and Plaintiffs’ motion to stay case (ECF No. 49), filed on December 6,

12

2017. Defendants filed notices of non-opposition to both motions (ECF Nos. 50, and 51) on

13

December 11, 2017.

14

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

15

response to any motion, except a motion under Fed. R. Civ. P. 56 or a motion for attorney’s fees,

16

constitutes a consent to the granting of the motion.” Plaintiffs’ counsel has informed the Court that

17

Cal Potter III passed away on November 22, 2017, and that Cal Potter IV cannot continue with

18

representation in this matter. The Court will therefore grant both motions.
