Further Proceedings Are Stayed When Counsel’s Motion to Withdraw Is Granted

The First Department noted that when plaintiff’s counsel’s motion for leave to withdraw was granted, further proceedings against plaintiff were stayed pursuant to CPLR 321 (c):

When the court granted plaintiff’s counsel’s motion for leave to withdraw, further proceedings against plaintiff were stayed, by operation of CPLR 321(c), until 30 days after notice to appoint another attorney had been served upon her … . While the stay was in effect, the court had no power to decide defendant’s motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint. Fan v Sabin, 2015 NY Slip Op 01400, 1st Dept 2-17-15
