Plaintiffs,

 v.

MICHAEL S. LITTLE,

Defendant.

 /

No. C-06-3157 MMC

ORDER DIRECTING DEFENDANT’S

COUNSEL TO LODGE CHAMBERS

COPY IN COMPLIANCE WITH GENERAL

ORDER 45 AND THE COURT’S

STANDING ORDERS; DIRECTING

COUNSEL TO NOTICE MOTION FOR

HEARING OR SUBMIT STIPULATION

THERETO

On March 1, 2007, defendant’s counsel electronically filed a motion to withdraw as

counsel. Defendant’s counsel has violated General Order 45 and the Court’s standing

orders, however, by failing to deliver to the Clerk’s Office “no later than noon on the

business day following the day that the papers are filed electronically, one paper copy of

each document that is filed electronically . . . marked ‘Chambers Copy’ and . . . clearly

marked with the judge’s name, case number, and ‘Chambers Copy-Do Not File.’” See

General Order 45 § VII.G; see also Standing Orders For Civil Cases Assigned to The

Honorable Maxine M. Chesney ¶ 2. 

Counsel is hereby ORDERED to comply with General Order 45 and the Court’s

standing orders by immediately submitting a chambers copy of the above-referenced

document. Counsel is hereby advised that if he fails in the future to comply with the Court’s

order to provide chambers copies of electronically-filed documents, the

Court may impose sanctions, including, but not limited to, striking from the record any

electronically-filed document of which a chambers copy has not been timely provided to the

Court.

Additionally, counsel has neither noticed the above-referenced motion for a hearing

date nor submitted a stipulation from his client, agreeing to the proposed withdrawal. Until

counsel notices the motion, there is no deadline by which his client must oppose the

motion, should he wish to do so. Accordingly, the Court will not consider counsel’s motion

unless and until either (1) it has been noticed for a hearing date, or (2) counsel submits a

stipulation from his client, agreeing to the proposed withdrawal..

IT IS SO ORDERED.
