The landlord brought a motion to lift a stay of eviction pending the tenant's appeal.

The court had previously directed the tenant to make specific payments toward rent and arrears as a condition of the stay.

The tenant failed to make the required payments and falsely claimed to have reached a new payment arrangement with the landlord.

Finding that the tenant failed to meet his obligations and attempted to mislead the court, the court granted the landlord's motion and lifted the stay of eviction.

Counsel for the defendants brought a motion to be removed as lawyer of record.

The motion was dismissed due to the moving party's failure to comply with Rules 15.04(1.2) and (1.3) of the Rules of Civil Procedure, including the disclosure of privileged and prejudicial information.

The court emphasized the need for compliance with rules and fiduciary obligations, imposing costs against the moving party.
