Uniform Civil Procedure Rules 1999

A town agent of a principal solicitor may withdraw from the record.

A town agent may not withdraw from the record unless the town agent—

gives 7 days notice of intention to withdraw to the principal solicitor; or

obtains leave from the court to withdraw without giving notice.

The application for leave to withdraw need not be served.

On withdrawing from the record, a town agent must serve a notice of withdrawal of town agent on all other parties other than a party in default of notice of intention to defend.

A notice of withdrawal of town agent must be in the approved form.

If a town agent withdraws from the record, the address of the principal solicitor’s place of business becomes the address for service until another town agent is appointed.
