Plaintiffs,

KEN B. GUTMAN, et al.,
11
Defendants.
12
Before the court is the Substitution of Attorney (ECF No. 50). Defendant Ken B. Gutman
13
seeks to substitute himself, pro se, as attorney of record in the place and stead of Elliot S. Blut of
14
Blut Law Group, PC.
15
LR IA 11-6(b) provides that “[n]o attorney may withdraw after appearing in a case except
16
by leave of the court after notice has been served on the affected client and opposing counsel.” LR
17
IA 11-6(c) provides that the signature of an attorney to substitute in a case “constitutes an express
18
acceptance of all dates then set for pretrial proceedings, for trial or hearing, by the discovery plan,
19
or in any court order.” LR IA 11-6(d) also provides that the substitution of an attorney “shall not
20
alone be reason for delay of pretrial proceedings, discovery, the trial, or any hearing in this case.”
21
Local Rule IA 3-1 provides:
22
An attorney or pro se party must immediately file with the court written notification
of any change of mailing address, email address, telephone number, or facsimile
number. The notification must include proof of service on each opposing party or
the party’s attorney. Failure to comply with this rule may result in the dismissal of
the action, entry of default judgment, or other sanctions as deemed appropriate by
the court.
