UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

WILLIAM TOWNSEND, JR.,

Plaintiff,

v.

D.K. SISTO, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 2:09-cv-2342 CKD P

ORDER

On August 31, 2015, plaintiff’s counsel filed a document seeking permission to withdraw 

leaving plaintiff pro se. Because counsel did not comply with Local Rule 182(d) that request will 

be denied. The court will also deny the two motions filed by plaintiff pro se on August 31, 2015. 

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Plaintiff’s counsel’s request for leave to withdraw leaving plaintiff pro se is denied 

without prejudice to renewal within 7 days. If the motion for withdrawal is renewed, the motion 

must comply with Local Rule 182(d). If plaintiff’s counsel wishes to appear telephonically at the 

hearing on his motion to withdraw, he should so request in his motion.
