`ANALYSIS
`I.
`Pursuant to our authorization, on November 18, 2016, Petitioner filed
`a Motion to Authorize Withdrawal of Counsel. Paper 34 (“Motion” or
`“Mot.”). AMX, LLC (“AMX”) was terminated from this proceeding as a
`result of a settlement agreement between AMX and Patent Owner. Mot. 1
`(citing Papers 29, 32). Specifically, the Motion seeks authorization for
`withdrawal of AMX’s lead counsel Brent Hawkins and back-up counsel
`Amol Parikh. Mot. 1. In an email to the Board on November 30, 2016,
`Patent Owner indicated that it does not oppose the Motion.
`Messrs. Hawkins and Parikh were also counsel for Dell, Inc. (“Dell”)
`pursuant to a power of attorney filed February 29, 2016. Paper 2. An
`amended power of attorney was filed on November 18, 2016, naming
`Gilbert A. Greene, James G. Warriner, and Stephanie N. DeBrow as Dell’s
`counsel. Paper 33.
`
`II. ORDER
`In consideration of the foregoing, it is hereby
`ORDERED that Petitioner’s Motion is granted;
