California CodesCode of Civil Procedure - CCPPart 1 — Of Courts of JusticeTitle 5 — Persons Specially Invested with Ministerial Powers Relating to Courts of JusticeChapter 1 — Attorneys and Counselors at LawSection 285

When an attorney is changed, as provided in the last section, written notice of the change and of the substitution of a new attorney, or of the appearance of the party in person, must be given to the adverse party. Until then he must recognize the former attorney.

Notes

Requires written notice to the adverse party when an attorney is changed, identifying the substitution of a new attorney or the party’s appearance in person. Until that notice is given, requires the adverse party to continue recognizing the former attorney rather than treating the change as effective for that purpose.
