ORDER GRANTING MOTION TO WITHDRAW; SETTING COMPLIANCE HEARINGS

Re: Dkt. No. 12

YVONNE GONZALEZ ROGERS, District Judge.

Counsel Frank Mayo has filed a Motion to Withdraw as Attorney for plaintiff Kesete B. Hintsa in the above-captioned matter. (Dkt. No. 12.) On November 21, 2016, the Court required a further submission from counsel attesting to the notice provided to plaintiff regarding counsel's motion to withdraw. Counsel for plaintiff filed such declaration on November 22, 2016. (Dkt. No. 15.)

Having carefully reviewed the motion and the papers submitted, and for good cause appearing, the Court GRANTS counsel Frank Mayo's motion to withdraw. The Court ORDERS counsel to file a declaration confirming that counsel has provided plaintiff with his case file. The Court SETS a compliance hearing for Friday, December 23, 2016 at 9:01 a.m. in the Federal Building, 1301 Clay Street, Oakland, California, Courtroom 1. By December 16, 2016, counsel shall file either (i) a declaration averring that he has provided plaintiff with the case file or (ii) a statement explaining his failure to comply. If compliance is complete, counsel need not appear and the Court may vacate the compliance hearing.

The Court further SETS a compliance hearing for Friday, January 27, 2017 at 9:01 a.m. regarding the status of the arbitration proceedings. By January 20, 2017, the parties shall file a JOINT STATEMENT updating the Court on the status of their arbitration proceedings. If compliance is complete, the parties need not appear and the Court may vacate the compliance hearing.

This Order terminates Docket Number 12.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
