NAZARI 2 LLC, 

Plaintiff, 

vs. 

JPMORGAN CHASE BANK N.A., ET AL., 

Defendants.

CASE NO. 19-cv-02786-YGR 

ORDER REQUIRING COUNSEL OF RECORD 

TO SUBMIT FURTHER INFORMATION RE:

WITHDRAWAL OF COUNSEL FOR 

PLAINTIFF CORPORATION

Re: Dkt. No. 27 

The Court has received the motion of plaintiff’s counsel (“Counsel”) to withdraw from 

representation of plaintiff (“the Client”) in the above-captioned action, along with the 

accompanying declaration. (Dkt. No. 27.) The hearing on such motion is currently set for 

September 24, 2019. If plaintiff/the Client objects to the motion, the objection must be filed 

by August 30, 2019. 

The Court ORDERS Counsel to submit further information in support of the motion in 

advance of the hearing, as follows: 

First, by no later than August 23, 2019, Counsel shall file a supplemental declaration 

indicating that Counsel has made further attempts to and/or: (1) spoken directly with a 

representative of the Client, telephonically or in person, about the case generally and the status of 

the proceedings, including the date of such communication or, if Client is not responsive, how 

Counsel has transmitted such information to the Client; (2) informed the Client of the 

consequences of Counsel’s withdrawal in this matter, including that a corporation is not permitted 

to appear in the litigation without counsel and that withdrawal may result in the Court striking the 

Client’s first amended complaint and dismissing without prejudice; and (3) served a copy of this

a

Order and the notice of motion and motion to withdraw on the Client.1 The declaration shall 

include the Client’s last known address and phone number to which the Court and other parties to 

the litigation may send notices. To the extent known, Counsel is directed to provide the Court with 

any information it may have as to the Client’s intention to substitute in new counsel in this 

litigation. 

Second, by no later than August 23, 2019, Counsel shall also file proof of service of a 

notice to the Client as follows: 

NOTICE TO CLIENT CORPORATION 

WHICH WILL BE UNREPRESENTED 

As a corporation, you will not be able to represent yourself in Court. You 

should immediately seek advice regarding legal representation. Failure to 

retain an attorney may lead to an order striking the pleadings that have been 

filed on your behalf or to the entry of a default judgment against you. 

If you do not keep the Court and other parties informed of your current address 

and telephone number, they will not be able to send you notices of actions that 

may affect you, including actions that may adversely affect your interests or 

result in your losing your case. 

Should Counsel fail to comply with the above requirements, the Court may deny the motion to 

withdraw. 

 Finally, pending before this Court is defendant’s Motion to Dismiss. (Dkt. No. 28.). 

Briefing on that motion is suspended pending further notice from this Court. The hearing is 

VACATED to be reset if necessary. 

IT IS SO ORDERED. 

Dated: August 14, 2019

 The Court notes that counsel’s declaration in support of the motion indicates that the 

motion is being served via regular mail to the “property at issue in this case” but the proof of 

service reflects service to a P.O. box.
