Defendant.

----oo0oo----

Plaintiffs brought this action against corporate 

defendant Candle3, LLC (“Candle3”) alleging various state law 

claims arising out of plaintiffs’ purchase of electrical 

consulting and electrical fixtures from the defendant. Defense 

counsel George W. Wolff moved to withdraw as defense counsel. 

(Docket No. 93.) The court has now held three hearings on the 

matter. At the first two hearings, defendant’s representative 

Jim White, President of Candle3, represented to the court that 

defendant was in the process of retaining new counsel. The court 

reminded Mr. White that Candle3 as a corporation could not appear 

in this action without counsel. Defendant then failed to appear 

at the third hearing on February 24, 2020 and has not retained 

new counsel to date.

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Mr. Wolff’s motion to 

withdraw as counsel of record (Docket No. 93) be, and the same 

hereby is, GRANTED, and Mr. Wolff is hereby relieved of any 

obligation to represent defendant further in this action.

Dated: February 27, 2020
