appears to have withdrawn from these cases. (OSC Hr’g Tr. 87-18, Mar. 11, 2013 (‘Iam no longer employed by Prenda or any other corporation or LLC that is involved in these cases.’).) Given the circumstances and the relationship between Gibbs and his clients, the Court will approve his request for withdrawal.” (Doc. #164).

The Court is correct. I am no longer employed by Prenda Law, Inc. or any other corporation or LLC that is involved in these types of cases.

A copy of above-referenced order, and notice of my withdrawal, was sent to Mark Lutz, who is purportedly the CEO of Plaintiff's company.

I wish to withdraw as counsel for Plaintiff for all of the reasons above. I pray that the Court understands my reasoning for this request, and grants it.

I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct based on my own personal knowledge, except for those matters stated on information and belief, and those matters I believe to be true. If called

upon to testify, I can and will competently testify as set forth above.
