Defendants.

Presently before the Court is Defendants, Counterclaimant, and Third Party Plaintiff

13

Counsel Amanda L. Ireland Motion to Withdraw as Counsel (ECF No. 39), filed on April 5,

14

2021.

15

Pursuant to Local Rule (“LR”) IA 11-6, “[n]o attorney may withdraw after appearing in a

16

case except by leave of Court after notice has been served on the affected client and opposing

17

counsel.” See LR IA 11-6(b). Having reviewed the motion, the Court finds that requirements of

18

LR IA 11-6(b) have been met. Amanda L. Ireland indicates that her clients have not paid fees

19

owed since January and there has been a gradual total breakdown in communication necessitating

20

the withdrawal. The Court will require that Raven and Chris Dudley advise the Court if they will

21

retain new counsel or proceed pro se by May 24, 2021. Filing a notice of new counsel or intent to

22

proceed pro se on or before May 24, 2021 is sufficient to comply with the Court’s order. Failure

23

to respond may result in a recommendation to the United States District Judge assigned to this

24

case that dispositive sanctions be issued, including dismissal of this action.

recommendation for dismissal of this action.
