By October 3, 2025 , Tang is ORDERED to have new counsel file a notice of appearance, or to provide a statement that she intends to proceed without an attorney. If Tang intends to retain counsel, but counsel cannot be retained by this deadline, a request for an extension of time may be filed. Any such request will not be granted absent a showing of good cause and diligence in attempting to obtain counsel.
The withdrawal is subject to the conditions imposed by Civil Local Rule 11-5(b).
