纽约南区(桑兰案所在法院)和纽约东区法院要求,一个律师要退出代理必须经过法院批准,要做动议。动议必须说明退出的原因,其原因必须达到法官的满意。 (见 Local Civil Rule 1.4. "Withdrawal or Displacement of Attorney of Record. An attorney who has appeared as attorney of record for a party may be relieved or displaced only by order of the Court and may not withdraw from a case without leave of the Court granted by order. Such an order may be granted only upon a showing by affidavit or otherwise of satisfactory reasons for withdrawal or displacement and the posture of the case, including its position, if any, on the calendar, and whether or not the attorney is asserting a retaining or charging lien. All applications to withdraw must be served upon the client and (unless excused by the Court) upon all other parties.") (Local Rules of the United States District Courts for the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York, am. July 11, 2011 http://www.nyed.uscourts.gov/pub/docs/local/localrules.pdf )
任何诉讼当事方有权利反对推出动议,被告律师完全凭网上的内容可让原告律师难以退出,并很有可能同时证明其律师对法院陈述的pro bono 是对法院的欺骗, 还是对大众第三者的欺骗,违反律师纪律4.1 条款(见对岸的灯转载博文,转载:律师的大众言论并不自由, https://www.sinovision.net/blog/index.php?act=details&id=85507&bcode=098)。
