Before the court is Attorney Lindsay Harris’s Motion to Withdraw, wherein Attorney Harris
seeks the court’s leave to withdraw as counsel for the Plaintiff. (Docket No. 18). In the motion, and
an accompanying affidavit (Docket No. 20), Attorney Harris asserts she and her client have
fundamentally differing views on how this case should proceed and Attorney Harris has had
difficulty contacting her client. The Plaintiff has not yet responded to this motion.
Currently, there are a number of deadlines pending in this case, including the expert
disclosure deadlines and dispostive motions deadline.

All currently pending deadlines are

STAYED pending resolution of the motion to withdraw. The court will consider whether to
reinstate the current deadlines after it resolves the motion to withdraw.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
