(c) Death, removal or disability of attorney. If an attorney dies, becomes physically or mentally incapacitated, or is removed, suspended or otherwise becomes disabled at any time before judgment, no further proceeding shall be taken in the action against the party for whom he appeared, without leave of the court, until thirty days after notice to appoint another attorney has been served upon that party either personally or in such manner as the court directs. Is it sufficient to file a notice of disability with a doctor’s letter attached to engage this provision? Is the disabled lawyer automatically relieved as counsel of record?
