     MARY ANN CASTRO                                  §     BEXAR COUNTY, TEXAS

                            MOTION FOR WITHDRAWAL OF COUNSEL

         This Motion for Withdrawal of Counsel is brought by JOSEPH P. APPELT, who is attorney of
record for MANUEL G. CASTRO in the trial court. Joseph P. Appelt, requests the Court to grant him
permission to withdraw as attorney for MANUEL G. CASTRO in this case. In support, Joseph P. Appelt
shows:
         Good cause exists for withdrawal of Joseph P. Appelt, as counsel for Petitioner, MANUEL G.
CASTRO, due to a conflict arising between Attorney and Client which prevents effective representation.
         A copy of this motion has been delivered to MANUEL G. CASTRO by CMRRR 7012 1010
0002 5767 6889 and regular mail; he is also hereby notified in writing of his right to object to this
motion. The last known address of MANUEL G. CASTRO is 23302 Hickory Shadow, Elmendorf,
Texas 78112
         There are no settings or hearings pending in this matter.
         A response to the Fourth Court of Appeals is due to their inquiry regarding Appellee’s past due
response brief. Said response to the Fourth Court is due May 18, 2015. Said response has been timely
filed.
         Oral argument has been requested by Appellant but has not yet been granted or denied.
         An entry of an order granting this motion and discharging Movant as attorney of record for
MANUEL G. CASTRO would not harm the other party.
                                              NOTICE TO CLIENT
         You have the right to object to this motion. If you do not oppose Joseph P. Appelt’s withdrawal
as your attorney, you may notify Joseph P. Appelt in writing of your consent to this motion.
         Joseph P. Appelt prays that Court enter an order discharging him as attorney of record for
MANUEL G. CASTRO.
