17-CLJ-03514 JONATHAN D. COBB, SR. vs. EMMA VIOLA ATWATER

EMMA VIOLA ATWATER PETER N. BREWER

JONATHAN D. COBB, SR Pro/per

Motion to be relieved of counsel

· OFF-CALENDAR. This matter is Ordered Off-Calendar for Lack of Notice. As a result, the Court is without jurisdiction to hear the Motion at this time.

· By this Motion, Defense Counsel Simon Offord and his firm Law Offices of Peter Brewer seek to withdraw from their engagement to defend against the Plaintiff’s quiet title action claiming that their client the Defendant has unlawfully encroached on the Plaintiff’s adjoining property in East Palo Alto.

· While Mr. Brewer has set forth in his supporting Declaration facts that support a material breakdown in the attorney-client relationship, increasing failure of communication that is making continued representation increasingly difficult to effectively carry out, the Proof of Service on file does not establish service of the Motion papers on the Plaintiff neighbor Mr. Jonathan Cobb, Sr. who is shown on the Court’s records of representing himself in Pro/Per. Service was on a lawyer Grant Baker of Michael B. Allen Law Group who are not Counsel-of-Record herein.
