Case No.: BC680076 [TENATATIVE] ORDER GRANTING MOTION TO BE RELIEVED AS COUNSEL Dept. 31 1:30 p.m. January 22, 2020 |
Plaintiff’s attorney of record, Elia James Castranova, seeks to be relieved as counsel, contending the attorney-client relationship has broken down such that further representation is not possible. Counsel declares he served the moving papers on his client via mail at a confirmed address. Counsel has filed proof of service on his client and on all other parties who have appeared in the action.
The motion is unopposed and granted; the ruling is effective upon filing proof of service of the final order. The Court notes that trial is not scheduled until 6/30/20 and therefore there will be no prejudice to Plaintiff as a result of the granting of this motion.
Counsel is ordered to give notice.
Parties who intend to submit on this tentative must send an email to the court at sscdept3@lacourt.org indicating intention to submit on the tentative as directed by the instructions provided on the court website at www.lacourt.org. If the department does not receive an email indicating the parties are submitting on the tentative and there are no appearances at the hearing, the motion may be placed off calendar. If a party submits on the tentative, the party’s email must include the case number and must identify the party submitting on the tentative.
