The proposed order relieving counsel must be prepared on the Order Granting Attorney's Motion to Be Relieved as Counsel-Civil (form MC-053) and must be lodged with the court with the moving papers. The order must specify all hearing dates scheduled in the action or proceeding, including the date of trial, if known.
Withdrawal of Motions Motions may be withdrawn by the filing of a “Notice of Withdrawal” with the Court at least two (2) court days before a scheduled hearing. A proposed order need not be filed in connection with such a notice.
LBR 2091-1(a) provides a procedure for an attorney to withdraw as counsel, and that withdrawal results in the client no longer being represented by an attorney. The former client is now considered to be a "Self-Represented Party".
File a motion for a new trial: Your attorney will file a motion for a new trial, which will argue that your trial lawyer provided ineffective assistance of counsel. The motion will include evidence to support this claim. Attend a hearing: The court will hold a hearing to consider your motion for a new trial.
A request for leave to withdraw a motion is a motion made by the mover to end consideration of the motion without reaching a decision on its merits. This means that the person who made the motion wants to take it back and not have it voted on.
If I understand correctly, it means that they filed a motion which they didn't want the court to hear anymore, asked to withdraw it, and permission was granted. The result is as if the first motion was never brought.
The notice of motion and motion, the declaration, and the proposed order must be served on the client and on all other parties who have appeared in the case. The notice may be by personal service, electronic service, or mail.
