# Case Name 2 Zardouz vs. Motion to Be Relieved as Counsel Medhat F. Mikhael, M.D., Inc. The court GRANTS attorney CRAIG S. ROBSON’s (of CORFIELD FELD LLP) unopposed Motion to Be Relieved as Counsel for Defendant MEDHAT F. MIKHAEL, M.D., INC dba PAIN MEDICINE ASSOCIATES.
The court previously denied a similar motion because of procedural defects. (See 4/17/26 Minute Order.)
The court finds moving attorney now meets the requirements set forth in Rule 3.1362 of the California Rules of Court. The order shall not become effective until the filing of a proof of service showing service of the order on MEDHAT F. MIKHAEL, M.D., INC dba PAIN MEDICINE ASSOCIATES.
The court notes that moving attorney states that counsel does not have an attorney-client relationship with the defendant MEDHAT F. MIHAEL, M.D., INC dba PAIN MEDICINE ASSOCIATES, as currently constituted.
