NOTICE TO PARTY/CLIENT: Your attorney has filed this Application to Be Relieved as Counsel Upon Completion of Limited Scope
Representation with the court stating that he or she no longer represents you in this action because the tasks that you agreed the
attorney would perform for you have been completed.
If you do not agree that these tasks have been completed and you want the attorney to continue to represent you until the
tasks are completed, you must file an Objection to Application to Be Relieved as Counsel Upon Completion of Limited Scope
Representation (form FL-956) with the court within 15 calendar days of the date that this notice was served on you, asking the
court to require the attorney to remain your attorney in the action until these tasks are completed. You must also serve this
Objection on your attorney and the other party. If you do not file a form FL-956, the court will grant your attorney’s request.
Please refer to the Proof of Service on page 2 of this form to determine the date that this notice was served on you (if this form was
served by mail, the date of service is 5 days after the date of mailing).
This procedure may be used ONLY if you believe that the attorney has not completed the tasks that he or she agreed to perform for
you. It is NOT to be used to resolve other disagreements you may have with the attorney, such as disagreements concerning fees.
I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State of California that the foregoing is true and correct.
