Civil - Unlimited  PI/PD/WD - Auto Motion Hearing (Civil) 37-2023-00010615-CU-PA-NC BAKER VS CITY OF SAN MARCOS [IMAGED] CAUSAL DOCUMENT/DATE FILED: Motion to Be Relieved as Counsel of Record, 02/13/2024

Elina Shakhbazyan ('Movant')'s motion to be relieved as counsel for Plaintiff Jaimi Baker ('Plaintiff') is granted.

The court construes Plaintiff's lack of opposition as a concession of the motion's merits. See San Diego Rules of Court, Rule 2.1.19.B. In addition, Movant represents that there has been a breakdown in communications with Plaintiff owing to Movant's inability to locate or otherwise connect with Plaintiff. The foregoing constitutes grounds to grant the motion. See Cal. R. Prof. Conduct 1.16(b)(4). The court further finds that Movant has complied with California Code of Civil Procedure § 284(2) and California Rules of Court, Rule 3.1362. The order relieving Movant as counsel shall be effective once Movant files with the court proof of service of the signed order upon Plaintiff at Plaintiff's last known address. See Cal. R. Ct. 3.1362(e).

This is the tentative ruling for the hearing at 1:30 p.m. on Friday, May 24, 2024. If no party appears at the hearing, this tentative ruling will become the order of the court as of May 24, 2024. If the parties are satisfied with the court's tentative ruling or do not otherwise wish to argue the motion, they are encouraged to give notice to the court and each other of their intention not to appear, though this notice is not required.
