California case law suggests that where the listing agreement has a fixed term, it may not be unilaterally terminated by the agent (though the client may unilaterally terminate). The agent may "renounce" the agency, but if the client is damaged by the renunciation, the client may sue for damages.
If I was wanting to cancel, the first thing I would do is contact the listing agent and explain why you want to cancel. Most of the time the listing agent will release you from the agreement. If they are resistant to releasing you from the agreement contact their Broker/manager and explain.
