Real Property/Housing Court Law and Motion Calendar for June 2, 2026. Line 1.

DEFENDANT CABLE CAR HOTEL, LLC Motion Of Cable Car Hotel For Reconsideration Of Ruling Denying Motion To Be Relieved As Counsel is DENIED.

The Supplemental Declaration of managing member Daniel Unhassobiscay states that he consents to withdraw of counsel and no longer wishes Chapman & Intrieri LLP to represent the LLC in litigation. If this is the case, Defendant and its counsel should file the mandatory judicial council form, MC-050, and formally substitute out as counsel. Defendant does not provide any authority why MC-050 cannot be signed by Mr. Unhassobiscay, as the managing member of the LLC, and who has otherwise already fired counsel on behalf of the LLC. (See Corp. Code section 17703.01(a).)

Given the termination of representation, Defendant and counsel are ordered to file MC-050 forthwith in order for Plaintiff to take any necessary and appropriate action such as striking Defendant's Answer. =(501/CFH)
