[TENTATIVE] ORDER GRANTING MOTION TO BE RELIEVED AS COUNSEL  

 

Dept. 31 

1:30 p.m.  

March 20, 2024 

 

Plaintiff Danielle Fluegal (“Plaintiff”) attorney of record, Kate Jamsheed of KJ Injury & Accident Lawyers, P.C. (“Counsel”), has filed a motion to be relieved as counsel, contending relief is necessary because there has been a breakdown in the attorney-client relationship and counsel has been unable to have Plaintiff sign a substitution of attorney. 

 

Counsel declares the moving papers were served on Plaintiff at an address confirmed by a private investigator, who came into contact with Plaintiff’s mother. Counsel has filed proof of service of the  

notice of motion and motion, declaration and proposed order.  (Cal. Rules of Court, rule 3.1362(d).)   

 

The motion is unopposed and GRANTED; the ruling is effective upon filing proof of service of the final order. No trial date has been set. Therefore, there is sufficient time for Plaintiff to seek other counsel or otherwise prepare prior to trial. 

 

Counsel is ordered to give notice.
