 MOTION FOR LEAVE TO WITHDRAW AS COUNSEL   
 
 
Attorney Mark L. Josephs respectfully submits this Motion for Leave to Withdraw as 
Counsel for Defendant David Staveley.  Undersigned counsel has represented Mr. Staveley in 
this matter as defense counsel after being admitted pro hac vice for purposes of this 
representation.  
 
Mr. Josephs requests that he be allowed to withdraw for two reasons.  First, Mr. Josephs 
will be closing his solo Massachusetts practice by the end of January 2021 because he has 
accepted an offer to serve as in-house counsel in a private company.  Second, Mr. Staveley has 
not paid, and cannot pay, for Mr. Josephs’s services.  Mr. Josephs has been in touch with the 
Federal Defender’s office about Mr. Staveley, as he will require an Assistant Federal Defender or 
a CJA attorney. 
 
For the foregoing reasons, undersigned counsel respectfully requests that this Motion for 
Leave be granted, and undersigned counsel be permitted to withdraw his appearance in this 
action.  The affidavit and certification required by Local Rule Gen 206 are attached. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Respectfully submitted, 
 
Dated:  January 6, 2021
