Defendants requested issuance of a bench warrant for arrest of Victoria Yeager for 

violation of the court order. That request will be denied without prejudice. Deponent Victoria

Yeager, however, will be directed to show cause why she should not be held in contempt for 

violation of the court’s order.

At the hearing, defense counsel represented that plaintiff’s attorney of record, Don Lesser, 

no longer represents plaintiff for purposes of the judgment debtor proceedings. Counsel will be 

afforded an opportunity to withdraw as attorney of record.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Deponent Victoria Yeager is ordered to show cause in writing, no later than January 

22, 2014, why she should not be held in contempt for failure to comply with the court’s order 

directing her appearance for a judgment debtor examination.

2. No later than January 22, 2014, defendants may submit by letter brief points and 

authorities in support of the request for issuance of a bench warrant.

3. No later than January 22, 2014, counsel Don Lesser may submit a request to withdraw 

as attorney of record for plaintiffs.

4. The Clerk of Court is directed to serve a copy of this order and all further orders of the 

court on plaintiff Charles Yeager and deponent Victoria Yeager at 15995 Pleasant Valley Road, 

Penn Valley, CA 95946.

Dated: January 9, 2014
