SAUCEDO v. BANK UNITED, FSB

CASE NO.:  21NWCV00754

HEARING:  09/14/22

#4

TENTATIVE ORDER

Christopher P. Brandlin and Cristopher P. Brandlin, A Professional Corporation’s unopposed motion to withdraw as counsel of record for Plaintiff GERARD SAUCEDO is GRANTED. (C.R.C. 3.1362.)

Moving Party to give Notice.

No Opposition filed as of September 12, 2022.        

The Court finds that Counsel has met the procedural requirements, including proper notice to the client at the last known residence or business address of the client.  C.R.C. 3.1362.

Here, Counsel’s declaration indicates that ethical obligations bar Counsel’s ability from further representing Plaintiff in this action. Where the issue (or conflict) is between the lawyer and client, without implicating other parties, the court can rely on counsel’s sworn declaration absent any reason to doubt the representations.

It does not appear that Attorney Brandlin’s continued representation would serve the interests of justice. The motion to withdraw is GRANTED.
