Pending before the Court is the Motion to Withdraw as Attorney of Record and Request for
15
Extension of Time (ECF No. 131) filed by Plaintiff’s Counsel. In the Motion, Counsel states he is
16
suffering from a medical condition that will not allow him to continue his representation of
17
Plaintiff. Counsel also explains that he has received a one year suspension from the State Bar of
18
Nevada. Plaintiff represents that he seeks a 90 day stay of proceedings to allow him time to retain
19
new counsel who will also need time to review the case. The Court finds there is an appropriate
20
reason to grant Plaintiff and his counsel’s requests without delay.
