[TENTATIVE] ORDER RE: MOTION TO BE RELIEVED

 

Dept. 3

8:30 a.m.

February 14, 2025

 

 

 

 

Allen Felahy and Felahy Trial Lawyers (“Counsel”) seek to be relieved as counsel of record for defendant Capital Stone Holdings, Inc. (“Defendant”) on grounds that there has been a complete breakdown of the attorney-client relationship. Absent a showing of resulting prejudice, an attorney’s request for withdrawal should be granted. (People v. Prince (1968) 268 Cal.App.2d 398, 406.)

Counsel’s Motion complies with California Rules of Court, Rule 3.1362. The Court notes that trial in this matter is not yet set and no prejudice will result from granting this motion. However, the proposed order is incomplete because Counsel did not provide Defendant’s current address and telephone number in Item 6. Therefore, the hearing is CONTINUED to __________ at 8:30 a.m. in Department 3 in the Alhambra Courthouse so that Counsel may submit a revised proposed order. The revised proposed order must also check Item 5a and be filed no later than 5 court days before the date of the hearing.

Moving party to give notice.

 

Dated this 14th day of February 2025
