Motion to be Relieved as Counsel for Defendant

Christopher W. Decker and Ogletree, Deakins, Nash, Smoak & Stewart, P.C. (“Defendant’s Counsel”) filed the pending motion to be relieved as counsel of record for defendant Prime Comms. Retail, LLC (“Defendant”) on July 15, 2024.

On July 31, 2024, Defendant filed its “Substitution of Attorney – Civil” on Judicial Council form MC-050, stating that Defendant was substituting Janine M. Braxton in as counsel to represent Defendant in place of Defendant’s Counsel.  (MC-050, ¶¶ 1-2.)  The court therefore finds that Defendant’s Counsel’s motion to be relieved as counsel for Defendant is moot.  

Thus, the court orders that Christopher W. Decker and Ogletree, Deakins, Nash, Smoak & Stewart, P.C.’s motion to be relieved as counsel of record for defendant Prime Comms. Retail, LLC is taken off calendar as moot.

 

            The court directs the clerk to give notice of this ruling.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
