District Court Vt?iliam McCool, Court Clerk AUG i 4 2019 Clerk?s Office CLERK 700 Stewart Street, Suite 2310 WESTERN or Seattle, WA 98101 BY STRICT 0F Re: Termination of Plaintiffs? Attorney Dear Sir, This letter is in response to one, the 8109/2019 docket note made in this case by and to the fact that have been informed that there is a typo in the Notice of Tennination of Legal Representation that I ?led last Friday in this case, also on August 9th. in regards to the latter, inadvertently left a remnant of the law ?rm?s name on the Notice above the signature lines; i want to assure the court that the word processing artifact was not a function of either trying to give the impression that i was engaged in the act of trying to impermissibly withdraw the attorneys in question; or two, in the alternative that the Notice was intended to act as an withdrawal by the attorney. The ?rm?s name appearing in the document was strictly a typo. It is my understanding that typically, no special formality is required for a client to discharge an attorney; any act by the client indicating an unmistakable purpose to sever the relationship is enough. Hanlin v. Mitchelson, 794 F.2d 834, 842 (2d Cir.1986). A client may discharge its attorney at any time, even without cause. Doggett v. Deuville Corp, 148 F.2d 881, 882 (5th Cir.1945)? MacLeod v. Vest Transp., 235 .Supp. 369, 371 Accordingly, I provided in addition to a letter mailed directly to former counsel for Discovery Park Community Alliance and myself, Dickson Frohiich, 1 provided notice to the Court and the other party in this matter, the City of Seattle about that termination. This was done to ensure one, that all parties to this case had been formally noti?ed, and two, to create an of?cial record of that termination, its time, and date. Other than that, the ongoing expectation I had and have is that the remaining procedure necessary to remove the law ?rm in question from this matter and to set in place replacement counsel will continue to proceed in accordance with the court rules.

Campbell, MPA 4027 215'r AVENUE WEST #206 SEATTLE, WA 98199 Case Document 11 Filed 08/14/19 Page 3 of 6 August 12, 2019 Mr. Roger Wynne, Assistant City Attorney Seattle City Attomey?s Of?ce 701 Fifth Avenue, Suite 2050 Seattle, WA 98104-7095 Roger, Dickson and Frohlich has just now deigned to share with me your email you sent to them from test Fn'day. As i have noted to you in the past, l'm not part of the lawyer corps of mutual support and assistance. You have zero knowledge about the matters involving the relationship or lack thereof between our former counsel and ourselves, so your disingenuous commentary is lost on me to them about handling ?your Situation?. . The notice of termination that was filed was never intended to serve as a notice of withdrawai of any kind; it was correctly presumed that Dickson rohlich would handle the court procedure for their formal withdrawal. In addition, the ?ling of the notice was to make it abundantly ctear to all parties, to plaintiffs? attorneys, the City's attorneys, and the court that Dickson and rohlich?s services had been terminated for cause; including but not limited to a belief that they had violated the rules of professional conduct in this matter. It was also welt understood by myself that when ?ling the notice that the US. District Court?s system would send automatic notices to the attorneys of record in this matter with links to it therefore it had the additional bene?t that a record of the notice of termination had been made to the attorneys of record and when it had been made. There will be no substitute counsel at this time until a replacement counsei can be found for both plaintiff parties. That was also made clear in the notice. Accordingly, you can run all the communications you want past and to your folks at Dickson and Frohlich you want, however let's be very clear with all of this - there are no ongoing communication channels between Dickson and Frohlich and myself; and in fact there have not been any for quite some time; that has been their approach in this matter for several weeks now. Therefore, whatever you've been talking with them about or want to talk to them about you have done so and you continue to do so for your own purposes and for your own pleasure. in fact, 1) it is amazing that l'rn seeing this iittle note from you to them at this time, and 2) they have only done so because they think it holds some value to me, part of the on-going hostile environment they have initiated and maintained against their clients.
