TO ALL PARTIES AND THEIR ATTORNEYS OF RECORD:

Pursuant to Local Rule 11.5, attorney Brad Yamauchi moves this court for an order

relieving him as attorney of record for plaintiffs Martha Rivera, et al.

Grounds for Relief

The grounds for the motion are as follow:

1. Continuing representation by Minami Tamaki LLP is no longer necessary for the

prosecution of this case.

2. If this motion is granted, the clients, Martha Rivera, et al., will continue to be

represented by attorneys of record Christopher Ho, Willie N. Nguyen, William J. Smith, Tina R.

Griffin, and Marielena Hincapié.

3. Because the remaining attorneys of record will remain on the case, there

 is no need at this point to notify the client in writing of the status of the case.

Date: December 20, 2006 Respectfully submitted,

MINAMI TAMAKI LLP

By: / s / Brad Yamauchi 

 BRAD YAMAUCHI

ORDER GRANTING ATTORNEY’S MOTION TO WITHDRAW AS COUNSEL

action is hereby granted.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
