Answer by Cheetah
I always thought it was because of his legal troubles and addiction issues.
In 2008 there was media speculation surrounding Dourdan’s contract negotiations with CBS. The parties could not reach a resolution and as a result his contract was not renewed. It was reported on April 14, 2008, that Dourdan was leaving the show.
In 2005, he pleaded no contest to misdemeanor battery after his ex-girlfriend Anne Greene accused him of rape and battery. He was sentenced to stay away from Greene and attend domestic violence counseling. In 2006, Dourdan sued Greene for $ 4 million, alleging slander and negligent infliction of emotional distress.
On April 28, 2008, Dourdan was arrested in Palm Springs, California on suspicion of possessing heroin, cocaine, ecstasy, and prescription drugs. An officer saw Dourdan’s car parked on the wrong side of the street with the interior light on and someone sleeping in the driver’s seat at approximately 5:12 a.m. Monday, according to Palm Springs police Sgt. Mitch Spike. Dourdan was taken to the Palm Springs jail and was released on $ 5000 bail. In an email quoted on Access Hollywood, he claims that the drugs belonged to people whom he took to a Coachella Music Festival VIP after-party. However, friends and castmates of Dourdan said that they were not at all surprised by his arrest. “One of the CSI Staffers even told the Chicago Sun Times, “After this, I think there will be a concerted effort to convince Gary to get help—before he kills himself.”” He pleaded guilty to two counts of cocaine and ecstasy possession during his arraignment on May 28, 2008. Dourdan will complete a 16-class drug program instead of the three years and eight months that he could have been sentenced to, based upon his charges.

Had a drug issue and some legal mess the producers did not want to deal with.
