Motion to Withdraw as Attorneys for Petitioner 

 

 

Williams Williams Rattner & Plunkett, PC (“WWRP”), states as follows for its Motion to 

Withdraw as Attorneys for Petitioner. 

 

1. 

During January 2026, WWRP entered its Appearance as attorneys for Petitioner. 

Since that time, there has been a breakdown in the attorney-client relationship. Petitioner has been 

non-responsive to WWRP. Also, Petitioner has failed in other obligations to WWRP. 

Accordingly, WWRP cannot effectively represent Petitioner. These factors establish good cause 

for WWRP to withdraw as Petitioner’s attorneys. 

 

2. 

WWRP’s withdrawal will not adversely affect Petitioner. The Tribunal recently 

placed this appeal in abeyance. Petitioner has ample time to secure new counsel before it must 

comply with any deadlines.

3. 

Petitioner has been advised that WWRP’s withdrawal was forthcoming and is being 

served with this Motion, as demonstrated in the concurrently-filed Proof of Service. 

 

WHEREFORE, WWRP respectfully requests that this honorable Tribunal enter an Order 

granting WWRP’s request to withdraw as counsel for Petitioner. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Respectfully Submitted,
