ORDER CONTINUING MOTION TO WITHDRAW; ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE
Re: Dkt. No. 104
MARIA-ELENA JAMES, Magistrate Judge.
Counsel for Plaintiff John Henneberry, Yolanda Huang, filed a motion to withdraw as Plaintiff's attorney. See Mot., Dkt. No. 104. The Court set the Motion to be heard on May 25, 2017 at 10:00 a.m. and clearly required "[b]oth Counsel and Plaintiff, John P. Henneberry [to] appear at [the] hearing, in person." See Notice, Dkt. No. 106. Neither Plaintiff nor his counsel appeared in person at 10:00 a.m. on May 25, 2017. Plaintiff appeared at 10:30, having been told (presumably by Ms. Huang) that the hearing would start at that time. Ms. Huang never appeared.
Accordingly, the Court hereby ORDERS Ms. Huang to show cause why she should not be sanctioned for failing to appear to argue her Motion as ordered. Ms. Huang shall file a declaration by June 8, 2017. If a responsive declaration is filed, the Court shall either issue an order based on the declaration or conduct a hearing on June 15, 2017 at 10:00 a.m. in Courtroom B, 15th Floor, 450 Golden Gate Avenue, San Francisco, California.
In addition, the Court CONTINUES THE HEARING on Ms. Huang's Motion until July 6, 2017 at 10:00 a.m. Ms. Huang shall continue to represent Plaintiff until that time, including at the upcoming June 29, 2017 settlement conference with Judge Beeler.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
