Quick
Note
Pursuant to Local Bankruptcy
Rule 9010-5, the substitution of attorneys is governed
by District Court Local Rule 83.3(g)(2) which states that
attorney substitutions are to be approved by the court
and signed by the party making the substitution, the attorney
ceasing to act and the newly appointed attorney. Therefore,
to facilitate the attorney substitution process and to
comply with District Court Local Rule 83.3(g)(2),
the court implemented the new form and order CSD 3011
- Substitution of Attorney and Order Thereon.
