- CU21-085681 CHRISTINA WAICZIS vs. WELK RESORTS NORTHSTAR, LLC
Defendant’s motion for summary judgment is denied.
The photographs of the scene of the fall, taken the following day by plaintiff’s daughter, and featured in defendant’s Points & Authorities, establish a triable issue of fact that gross negligence exists. The court of course disregards the cones and stanchions per Evidence Code 1151 and because they weren’t there on the day of the accident. The photos show a shin-high dark colored object against a dark-colored floor, with nothing at eye level to warn pedestrians of the tripping hazard and nothing to stop people from running into it. Unlike the transitory, “one-off” hazard in Willhide-Michiulis v. Mammoth Mountain Ski Area, LLC (2018) 25 Cal.App.5th 344, cited by defendant, this was a permanent, stationary, and ongoing hazard that any employee or supervisor could see—and ameliorate--at any time. The failure to take any steps to prevent people from walking into it could allow a jury to find a ‘want of even scant care’ or ‘an extreme departure from the ordinary standard of conduct.’ Rosencrans v. Dover Images, Ltd. (2011) 192 Cal.App.4th 1072, 1082. Because a jury could find that the defendant was grossly negligent, the liability waiver is inapplicable, as against public policy. City of Santa Barbara v. Superior Court (2007) 41 Cal.4th 747.
Defendant’s objections to the Moore declaration are overruled. The witness’ area of expertise is appropriate to render an opinion of whether a condition is a trip and fall hazard; defendant’s arguments go to the weight of the evidence, not admissibility.
The court notes the opposition was not filed timely in compliance with the parties’ stipulation. The court also notes that the defendant’s separate statement did not comply with the formatting requirements of CRC 3.1350(h). Counsel shall each pay sanctions in the amount of $50 to the Nevada County Law Library.
- CU21-085860 GEORGE DEVER et al vs. DANIEL J CROUCH et al
The court declines to amend the judgment. CCP 473(a)(1) authorizes the amendment of a “pleading or proceeding” “by correcting a mistake in the name of a party.” A judgment is not a pleading. The Affidavit of Identity procedure (CCP 680.135) provides a remedy when an error is discovered in the name of a defendant post-judgment. The Affidavit of Identity filed 5-14-24 does not state the basis for counsel’s assertion that Daniel T and Daniel J Crouch are the same person. The attached printout has no reference to Daniel J. Crouch. However, the court also takes note of the complaint filed in this case, and more importantly, the notarized secured promissory note attached to the complaint, in which the borrower is referred to as Daniel J Crouch in the first paragraph but Daniel T Crouch at the signature line; the notary acknowledgement states that the signer of the document was Daniel T Crouch. The court therefore finds that: “AKA Daniel T. Crouch” may be properly added to the name of the judgment debtor on a Writ or Abstract of Judgment issued in this case.
- CU21-085893 TOM AMESBURY et al vs. BARBARA HEGER et al
The Petition to Compel Arbitration is granted. CCP 1281.6 provides the sole method for the court to select an arbitrator if the parties are unable to agree. The statute does not authorize the court to delegate the selection process to a third party organization. As defendant has not provided any proposed arbitrators, this matter is continued to July 26, 2024 at 9:00 a.m. in Dept. 6. Defendant shall file and serve a list of proposed arbitrators by July 19, 2024. The court will thereafter issue a list of five names, as provided by CCP 1281.6.

6-21-2024 Civil Law & Motion Tentative Rulings
- CL0000572 Gerry Reis v. Roger Reis
Defendant’s demurrer is sustained with leave to amend. Defendant argues that the complaint fails to state a cause of action and is uncertain. The court agrees. A civil complaint must state the facts upon which the claims are based. This complaint does not include any such allegations. Plaintiff has checked box 10(a) indicating that a motor vehicle cause of action is attached, but has instead attached a “general negligence” cause of action. The general negligence cause of action does not say who did something wrong, what that person did wrong, and how that caused harm to plaintiff. The demurrer is sustained with leave to amend. Plaintiff may file an amended complaint within 20 days of service of the order after hearing, to correct the problems outlined here. Appearances are required.

Be sure to comment on the relevance, if any, of Code of Civil Procedure section 681.010. Both parties’ briefs of no more than 5 pages shall be submitted by July 12, 2024 at noon. No appearances are required.
- CU0000569 Susan Foote vs. Jenny Renee Hunter Kaeding
Defendant’s motion to continue trial is granted, in part. Defendant has shown good cause for solely a brief continuance to complete discovery. Trial is continued to September 3, 2024 at 9:00 a.m.; pretrial conference is continued to August 23, 2024 at 11:00 a.m.; mandatory settlement conference is continued until August 12, 2024 at 10:00a.m.
- CU0001293 Minta Mae Stovall vs. WMPD LLC, et al.
Plaintiff’s motion for trial preference is granted. Per Code of Civil Procedure section 36(f), the trial must be set within 120 days of the order granting preference. The trial and associated dates will be set at the June 24, 2024 case management conference.
The motion of defendants Alderson and WMPD to quash service of summons is denied.
As a preliminary matter, the court need not resolve plaintiff’s June 7, 2024 evidentiary objections to the Alderson declaration for purposes of this motion. The court sustains plaintiff’s June 7, 2024 objections to MMSP/Alderson’s request for judicial notice.
Alderson/WMPD first argue that they were exempt from service of process during Alderson’s court appearance in California due to the application of the “Immunity Rule.” The court disagrees. The Immunity Rule no longer applies under current law. See Severn v. Adidas Sportschuhfabriken, 33 Cal.App.3d 754, 762 (1973); Silverman v. Superior Ct., 203 Cal.App.3d 145, 149 (1988). In addition, Alderson did not appear at the courthouse voluntarily, but to surrender on an arrest warrant. Under these facts, the Immunity Rule would not apply even if the court were inclined to revive it.
Next, Anderson/WMPD argue that this court lacks personal jurisdiction because moving parties do not have sufficient minimum contacts with the state. The court is not persuaded. “A court may exercise specific jurisdiction over a nonresident defendant only if: (1) the defendant has purposefully availed himself or herself of the forum benefits; (2) the controversy is related to or arises out of [the] defendant's contacts with the forum; and (3) the assertion of personal jurisdiction would comport with fair play and substantial justice.” Pavlovich v. Superior Ct., 29 Cal.4th 262, 269 (2002) (citations and internal quotations omitted). Here, the evidence presented, including the verified complaint, sufficiently establishes that Anderson/WMPD have purposely availed themselves of this forum’s benefits by taking an interest in, conducting transactions pertaining to, and commencing foreclosure proceedings on a real property located in this forum. See Plaintiff Op, at 9:27-10:20.
Anderson/WMPD also suggest that a forum selection clause compels that this matter be litigated in the state of Nevada. Not so. “[A] party may move to stay or dismiss the action on the ground of inconvenient forum.” Miller-Leigh LLC v. Henson (2007) 152 Cal.App.4th 1143, 1150. The application of a forum selection clause is not properly before the court at this time for resolution and is irrelevant to the question of personal jurisdiction.
In light of the court’s orders granting trial preference and the resulting accelerated trial timeline, moving defendants shall file their answer/responsive pleading by July 1, 2024.

Defendants/cross-complainants’ demurrer and motion to strike are continued until July 5, 2024 at 10:00 a.m.
6-14-24 Civil Law & Motion Tentative Rulings
- CU0000634 Carla Marie Vieira vs. Cal. Department of Transportation, et al.
The June 14, 2024 hearing is continued from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. in Dept. 6. No appearances are required.
Defendant California Department of Transportation’s (DOT) motions for summary judgment against Richard Knolle and Andrea Janecek, in their individual capacities, are denied.
The applicable law for this matter is well summarized in Simms v. Bear Valley Community Healthcare District (2022) 80 Cal.App.5th 391:
A claim for personal injury against a public entity, such as Simms's medical malpractice claim, generally must be presented to the public entity “not later than six months after the accrual of the cause of action.” ([Government Code] § 911.2, subd. (a).) … “ ‘[F]ailure to timely present a claim for money or damages to a public entity bars a plaintiff from filing a lawsuit against that entity.’ ” (City of Stockton v. Superior Court (2007) 42 Cal.4th 730, 738, 68 Cal.Rptr.3d 295, 171 P.3d 20; § 945.4 [with limited exceptions, “no suit for money or damages may be brought against a public entity ... until a written claim therefor has been presented to the public entity and has been acted upon by the board, or has been deemed to have been rejected by the board”].)
A claim has been presented to the public entity when the public entity “receives a document which contains the information required by section 910 and is signed by the claimant....” (Phillips [v. Desert Hosp. Dist. (1989) 49 Cal.3d 699, 707], 263 Cal.Rptr. 119, 780 P.2d 349; see § 910.2 [signature requirement].) The information required by section 910 includes the “date, place, and other circumstances of the occurrence or transaction which gave rise to the claim asserted” and “[a] general description of the ... injury, damage or loss incurred so far as it may be known at the time of presentation of the claim.” (§ 910, subds. (c), (d).) Where the claimant seeks less than $10,000, the claim must also state “the amount claimed,” including an estimate of any prospective damages, “together with the basis of computation of the amount claimed.” (Id., subd. (f).) Where the amount sought exceeds $10,000, “no dollar amount shall be included in the claim,” but the claim “shall indicate whether the claim would be a limited civil case.” (Ibid.) “[A] claim need not contain the detail and specificity required of a pleading, but need only ‘fairly describe what [the] entity is alleged to have done.’ ” (Stockett [v. Association of Cal. Water Agencies Joint Powers Ins. Authority (2004) 34 Cal.4th 441, 446], 20 Cal.Rptr.3d 176, 99 P.3d 500.) Moreover, “ ‘[w]here there has been an attempt to comply [with the claims statute] but the compliance is defective, the test of substantial compliance controls.’ ” (Wood v. Riverside General Hospital (1994) 25 Cal.App.4th 1113, 1118, 31 Cal.Rptr.2d 8 (Wood).) “Substantial compliance contemplates that there is at least some compliance with all of the statutory requirements.” (Del Real v. City of Riverside (2002) 95 Cal.App.4th 761, 769, 115 Cal.Rptr.2d 705 (Del Real).)
…
There is a recognized and important distinction, however, between a claim that is inadequate because it does not substantially comply with the requirements of section 910 and a document that is not a claim at all. “A claim that fails to substantially comply with sections 910 and 910.2 may still be considered a ‘claim as presented’ if it puts the public entity on notice both that the claimant is attempting to file a valid claim and that litigation will result if the matter is not resolved.” (Del Real, supra, 95 Cal.App.4th at p. 769, 115 Cal.Rptr.2d 705; see § 910.8 [requirement that public entity give notice “[i]f ... a claim as presented fails to comply substantially” with statutory requirements].) A “claim as presented” is also sometimes called a “trigger-claim” because its receipt by a public entity “triggers a duty by the public entity to notify the potential claimant of the claim's insufficiency stating, with particularity, the defects or omissions.” (Green v. State Center Community College Dist. (1995) 34 Cal.App.4th 1348, 1358, 1354, 41 Cal.Rptr.2d 140 (Green); see § 910.8 [requiring notice of insufficiency of claim]; see also § 911.3, subd. (a) [notice requirement for claims returned as untimely].) “If the public entity fails to send this notice, it waives any defenses as to the sufficiency of the claim based upon a defect or omission.” (Green, supra, 34 Cal.App.4th at p. 1358, 41 Cal.Rptr.2d 140; see § 911 [waiver by failure to give notice of insufficiency]; see also § 911.3, subd. (b) [waiver by failure to give notice of untimeliness].)
(Simms, supra, 80 Cal.App.5th at 399–401.)
At bar, the claim for $5 million dollars against the state, filed by an attorney on behalf of the decedent Judith Knolle and her estate, included both damages personal to the deceased, and damages personal to the survivors of the deceased. The “burial and funeral expenses; pain and suffering” are claims by the estate of the deceased. “[C]ompensation for the loss of the deceased’s companionship and support” can only be claimed by survivor(s) of the deceased. The court need not decide whether sufficient information was disclosed on the face of the filed claim to reasonably enable California DOT to make an adequate investigation of the merits of the claim and to settle it without the expense of a lawsuit, had it desired. The court assumes, arguendo, that there was not substantial compliance. That said, the court concludes nevertheless that this was a claim as presented or trigger claim. DOT was placed on notice that the estate and very likely survivors of the decedent were attempting to file a valid claim and that litigation would result if the matter was not resolved. This in turn triggered a duty by DOT to notify the potential claimant of the claim's insufficiency stating, with particularity, the defects or omissions. That was not done here. Where, as here, the public entity fails to send this notice, it waives any defenses as to the sufficiency of the claim based upon a defect or omission under Government Code section 911.
Summary judgment is denied.
- CU0000569 Susan Foote v. Jenny Kaeding
The June 14, 2024 hearing is continued from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. in Dept. 6. No appearances are required.
Defendant’s motion to expunge the lis pendens is granted.
Pursuant to Section 405.20 of the Code of Civil Procedure, “[a] party to an action who asserts a real property claim may record a notice of pendency of action [lis pendens], in which that real property claim is alleged.” The effect of a lis pendens “is that anyone acquiring an interest in the property after the action was filed will be bound by the judgment.” BGJ Assocs., LLC v. Superior Court (1999) 75 Cal.App.4th 952, 966. “Once a lis pendens is filed, it clouds the title and effectively prevents the property’s transfer until the litigation is resolved or the lis pendens is expunged.” Id. at 967; see also Urez Corp. v. Superior Court (1987) 190 Cal.App.3d 1141.
A court shall order that the lis pendens be expunged if (1) “the court finds that the pleading on which the notice is based does not contain a real property claim”; or (2) “the court finds that the claimant has not established by a preponderance of the evidence the probably validity of the real property claim.” Code of Civil Proc. § 405.31, 405.32.) The burden is on the party opposing the expungement motion to establish the existence of a real property claim and its probable validity. See Code of Civ. Proc. §§ 405.30, 405.32; Howard S. Wright Const. Co. v. Superior Court, (2003) 106 Cal.App.4th 314, 319.)
The court need not resolve defendant’s objections to the declaration of plaintiff except as noted. For purposes of this motion, the court considers paras 1-4 of plaintiff’s declaration. The court sustains the objection to para. 5 of plaintiff’s declaration including the unsworn e-mails of Brandon Glasson, Travis Foote, and Christina Lopez attached thereto. These e-mails do not constitute admissible evidence under penalty of perjury. The court need not resolve the remaining objections by defendant. The court does not consider argument of counsel as evidence and does not consider evidence other than statements submitted under penalty of perjury.
On the record submitted, the court finds that the complaint includes two real property claims to quiet title and for partition. That said, the court finds that plaintiff has not established by a preponderance of credible evidence the probable validity of the real property claims. The lis pendens is ordered expunged.
By law “[t]he court shall direct that the party prevailing [on the motion] . . . be awarded reasonable attorney’s fees and costs of making or opposing the motion.” The reasonable billing rate for counsel is fixed at $350.00 per hour. Based thereon, the court awards fees for 9 hours in the amount of $3,150.00 and costs in the amount of $60.00 (filing fee). To the extent that defendant seeks recovery of $751.18 (“research costs”), she must provide legal authority for the same.

- CU0000663 Brian Kelley, et al. vs. Rebecca Aycock, et al.
The motion for leave to file the amended complaint is granted. The motion was filed reasonably soon after the 10 April 2024 depositions wherein plaintiff discovered evidence to support pleading additional theories of liability against new defendants. Any challenges to the sufficiency of claims for punitive damages must be addressed by separate motion. The trial date and associated dates are vacated. A case management conference is set for 1 July 2024 at 9:00 a.m. in Dept. 6. The parties shall file case management statements as required and plaintiff shall have the new defendants served as soon as possible to avoid any further delays. No appearances are required.
- CU0000795 Mark G. Jones vs. Barbara L. Reamer, et al.
The motion to consolidate and the motion for a stay are denied. The motion for reclassification is denied without prejudice.
In the second amended complaint for the instant case, plaintiff Jones alleges wrongful foreclosure in connection with three properties (the Christie Lane property and the Copenhagen Drive properties) against, among others, three trustee sale purchasers of the properties: Sierra Asset Investors, SPFF, and Veritas Capital (the “trustee sale bidders”). In case CL0001025, Sierra Asset Investors seeks to evict defendant Jones from the Christie Lane property.
As a preliminary matter, plaintiff Jones erroneously filed his motion to consolidate in the unlawful detainer case. Notice should have been given to all parties in both cases, but the motion itself should have been filed in the instant case, which was the first in time and is the low-number case. See Rules of Court, Rule 3.350.
Turning to the merits, “Code of Civil Procedure section 1048 grants discretion to the trial courts to consolidate actions involving common questions of law or fact.” Todd-Stenberg v. Dalkon Shield Claimants Trust (1996) 48 Cal.App.4th 976, 978. At bar, the trustee sale bidders are named as defendants in counts four (injunction) and thirteen (quiet title), respectively. Other than alleging that the trustee sale bidders purchased the properties at issue, the SAC includes the following allegation regarding these defendants: “they may have also wrongfully and/or unlawfully participated in the wrongful and illegal Trustee’s Sale of Plaintiff’s Property at foreclosure.” SAC para. 95 (italics supplied). All three defendants have been served, a default has been entered as to SPFF, and there presently is no answer or other responsive pleading from Sierra Asset Investors or Veritas Capital.
On this record, the pleadings in the wrongful foreclosure action do not frame any material or significant issue of law or fact in common with the issues in the unlawful detainer action. The unlawful detainer action has one overriding issue: whether Jones has a right to possession of the property. Contrary to the suggestion of Jones, both cases, as presently pled, do not involve complex issues regarding the determination of title. “In unlawful detainer proceedings, ordinarily the only triable issue is the right to possession of the disputed premises, along with incidental damages resulting from the unlawful detention.” Coyne v. De Leo (2018) 26 Cal.App.5th 801, 817; see, e.g., High v. Cavanaugh (1962) 205 Cal.App.2d 495, 498; Cheney v. Trauzettel (1937) 9 Cal.2d 158, 159. More specifically, a plaintiff-purchaser in an unlawful detainer action need prove only that the sale was in compliance with Civil Code section 2924 and that they thereafter duly perfected title. See Stephens, Partain & Cunningham v Hollis (1987) 196 Cal.App.3d 948, 952. “‘Matters affecting the validity of the trust deed or primary obligation itself, or other basic defects in the plaintiff's title, are neither properly raised in this summary proceeding for possession …, nor are they concluded by the judgment.’” MCA, Inc. v. Universal Diversified Enterprises Corp. (1972) 27 Cal.App.3d 170, 176, quoting, Cheney, 9 Cal.2d at 160.
The request for a stay is denied for similar reasons. No good cause has been demonstrated why the unlawful detainer proceedings herein must or should be held in abeyance pending resolution of the wrongful foreclosure action. Plaintiff in the unlawful detainer action has a right to invoke use of summary unlawful detainer proceedings. See Coyne, 26 Cal.App.5th at 817 (“The purpose of the unlawful detainer statutes is to provide the landlord with a summary, expeditious way of getting back his property when a tenant fails to pay the rent or refuses to vacate the premises at the end of his tenancy.”); see Vasey v. California Dance Co. (1977) 70 Cal.App.3d 742, 746. General issues related to the validity of title are not properly part of the unlawful detainer action and, as necessary, can be resolved as part of the wrongful foreclosure action. A stay, under the circumstances presented, is not warranted.
The motion for reclassification of the unlawful detainer case pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure section 403.040 is denied without prejudice. That issue must be presented to and decided by the assigned judge in the unlawful detainer matter.
- CU0000944 Jaime Lopez vs. Tahoe Preservation Associates LP, et al.
Plaintiff’s motion to compel further responses to interrogatories is granted with the exception of a further response by Care Housing GP LLC as to Interrogatory 3.2. Plaintiff’s motion to compel production of documents is granted. Plaintiff’s motion to deem requests for admissions as admitted is granted (unless responses without objections are produced prior to the hearing).
The objection to a further response to Interrogatory 3.2 as to Care Housing GP LLC is well founded. That interrogatory has been answered.
Defendants’ remaining objections to all other discovery requests lack merit. The discovery propounded seeks relevant information and is not overbroad, burdensome or oppressive, especially given the election by defendants to raise 25 different defenses in each answer.
Sanctions are awarded to plaintiff in the amount of $3,150.00. Defendants’ request for sanctions is denied.
- CU21-085797 Koslin and Koslin Construction, Inc. vs. GV Development, LLC
The motions for summary adjudication by defendant GV Development Group, LLC (GVD) and defendant Smith are denied.
Standard
A defendant moving for summary judgment based on the affirmative defense of the statute of limitations carries its burden by presenting evidence establishing that the plaintiff’s claim is time barred; it then falls to plaintiff to counter with evidence creating a dispute about a fact relevant to that defense, that is, plaintiff must submit evidence that would allow a reasonable trier of fact to find in plaintiff’s favor on the statute of limitations issue. See Genisman v. Carley (2018) 29 Cal.App.5th 45, 49.
Second Cause of Action for Breach of the Confidential Agreement against Defendants Smith and GVD, Third Cause of Action For Breach of the Construction Agreement against Defendant GVD and Third Cause of Action for Breach of Agreements to Pay Change Orders against Defendant GVD
Defendant GVD argues that both the second and third causes of action are time barred and that it is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. Defendant Smith argues that the second cause of action is time barred. Specifically, they argue the statute of limitations for these claims accrued no later than December 2015--pointing to various emails in the second half of 2015 to suggest that Smith/GVD breached the agreements at that time—and hence the claims were time barred as of December 2019. See Exhibits C-I to GVD’s 1/11/24 Separately Bound Evidence. The court is not persuaded.
The instant action was filed in September 2021. An action for breach of a written contract must be filed within four years of the breach. See Code of Civil Procedure section 337(a). As an initial matter, defendants appear to have failed to meet their burden of establishing a breach or repudiation in 2015 based on the e-mails presented. The emails, standing alone, are subject to various interpretations/inferences and suggest the existence of a material dispute as to whether there was a breach or repudiation in 2015. There is certainly no definitive statement or indication that defendants had breached or repudiated the agreements. See Exhibits C-I to GVD’s 1/11/24 Separately Bound Evidence. Assuming defendants met their burden, there are sufficient disputed facts to defeat summary adjudication as to this issue. The evidence presented by plaintiff, in combination with the e-mails, creates a material dispute as to whether there was a definitive breach or repudiation in 2015. See Koslin Decl. paras. 58-60, 61-73, Exs. 2 and 5. Among other things, Koslin had asked via email in 2015 that unpaid invoices be credited to his capital account, which, per the terms of the confidential agreement, he could do at his sole discretion. See Exhibits H and B to GVD’s 1/11/24 Separately Bound Evidence. There is evidence that Koslin received a partial payment in January 2019. See Exhibit 5 to Koslin Decl. “A few months before the action was filed in 2021, Smith [told Koslin] ‘We will be paid all of our money back as soon as these three houses sell.’ [referring to certain lots that were substantially complete.]” Koslin Decl., para 47. A reasonable juror could conclude, from all of the e-mails as well as the recollections of Koslin, that there was no definitive breach or repudiation in 2015. Lastly, “when there are ongoing contractual obligations the plaintiff may elect to rely on the contract despite a breach, and the statute of limitations does not begin to run until the plaintiff has elected to treat the breach as terminating the contract.” Romano v. Rockwell Internat., Inc. (1996) 14 Cal.4th 479, 489. A reasonable trier of fact could conclude that this case involved an interrelated operating agreement, confidential agreement and construction contract and that plaintiff did not make an election to treat a breach by defendants as terminating the contract until 2021. See Koslin Decl. paras 45- 46 and Exhibit 2.
Fourth Cause of Action for Fraud against Defendant Smith
Defendants argue that this claim arose in 2011, is now time-barred, and that they are entitled to judgment as a matter of law. The court is not persuaded.
As a preliminary matter, GVD is not named in this cause of action (although the prayer for relief references GVD). GVD lacks standing to seek summary adjudication of this claim and its motion is denied on that basis alone.
Turning to the merits, in cases of fraud, the three year statute of limitations commences when the plaintiff discovers the injury. See Code of Civil Procedure section 338(d). (In an action “on the ground of fraud”, “The cause of action in that case is not deemed to have accrued until the discovery, by the aggrieved party, of the facts constituting the fraud ….”).
At bar, the court assumes arguendo that both defendants have standing to seek summary adjudication of this claim and that both defendants met their burden of presenting evidence that plaintiff’s claim is time-barred by pointing to plaintiff’s complaint which alleges that Smith’s actions took place in 2011, ten years before the complaint was filed. See Exhibit A, para 61 to 1/11/24 GVD’s Separately Bound Evidence. That said, plaintiff has met his burden of presenting evidence that would allow a trier of fact to find that the claim is not time-barred. Koslin declares: “It was not until Smith wrote a letter on August 12, 2021, that I discovered that he had in fact reduced my capital account by $150,000 and that distributions were being calculated since 2011 based on that reduction in my capital account.” Koslin Decl., para 48. This statement in Koslin’s declaration is sufficient to raise a triable issue of fact that that fraud was undiscovered until 2021 and that the action did not accrue until that date.
The motions are denied in their entirety.

- PR0000367 In the Matter of Leilani Asonia Hollingshead
The June 14, 2024 hearing is continued from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. in Dept. 6. No appearance is required. This matter was continued from May 10, 2024 because the Franchise Tax Board (FTB) filed a request for special notice and they were not served. There is still no proof of service on FTB in the court file. In addition, it is not readily apparent that sale and equal division of the property at issue among the six children as requested by petitioner is consistent with the intentions of the decedent. One plausible outcome could involve the sale of the property with distribution of half the proceeds to Richard Hollingshead and distribution of the remaining proceeds equally among the other five children. Any party that has a position regarding the petition, including an opposition to the same, must file and serve their response/opposition by no later than July 12, 2024. The moving part shall prepare an order after hearing that incorporates this ruling and serve the same on all interested parties with proof of service of the same.

- PR0000518 In the Matter of Donald Robert Lewis
The June 14, 2024 hearing is continued from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. in Dept. 6. No appearances are required. The will attached to the petition, described as being five pages long, is still missing pages 3 and 4, as previously noted in connection with the May 10 hearing. Petitioner Lewis shall address this issue. In addition, objector Andes has filed an objection to the will contesting its validity. Once a contestant has filed an objection, a summons must be issued and served, with a copy of the objection, on the persons required by Probate Code §8110 to be served with notice of hearing of a petition for administration of the decedent’s estate. The summons must be issued and served as provided in Code of Civil Procedure § 412.10 et seq. and § 413.10 et seq. The summons must contain a direction that the persons summoned file a written pleading with the court in response to the contest within 30 days after service of the summons. See Probate Code § 8250(a). See also Probate Code §8004(b) (procedure for will contest set forth in Probate Code §8250 et seq.). Contestant Andes shall address these issues prior to the next hearing. If contestant objects to the petition to administer the estate by Lewis, any objection to that specific request shall be filed and served no later than July 19, 2024. The hearing is continued to July 26, 2024 at 9:00 a.m. in Dept. 6.

- PR0000188 In the Matter of Todd Alan Goodin
The petition by conservatee counsel for attorney’s fees is granted as prayed, chargeable to the conservatee’s estate. Counsel for conservatee is relieved. No appearances are required.
- PR0000232 In the Matter of Estate of Scott Nebenzahl
Appearances are required by petitioner Welborn and creditor Duffer. The court has received supplemental briefing from the creditor including declarations from petitioner and counsel for petitioner and creditor.
By no later than 28 June 2024, petitioner and creditor shall provide the court with additional declarations that address the following questions: (1) with respect to every document served by mail on the surviving spouse, was that item returned to the sender as undeliverable for any reason? (2) how recently has any attempt been made to verify the current whereabouts of the surviving spouse including whether she still resides at Frosty Lane?
The court will issue an order to show cause to the surviving spouse to file an inventory and appraisal or explain why the information should not be provided pursuant to Probate Code section 11442 as it appears that apportionment of the debt of the decedent is potentially required pursuant to Probate Code section 11444(b) and that allocation would be affected by characterization and value of separate property owned by the surviving spouse and community property not administered in the estate.

11. PR0000519 In the Matter of David L. Swetman
The spousal property petition is continued to 7-12-24 at 9:00 a.m. in Dept. 6.
A spousal property petition allows for the decedent’s one-half share of the community property to pass to the surviving spouse without estate administration. See Prob. Code 13650, et seq.
At bar, the petition first requests that a check made out “Estate of David Swetman” pass to decedent’s spouse. The explanation in the amended petition reveals that this check is an inheritance received by the decedent, which is the separate property of the decedent, not community property. As such, this cannot be transferred via a spousal property petition.
The other piece of property at issue is real estate. There is presently insufficient information provided to determine whether this is community property which can be transferred by this procedure. In addition, the petition contains other deficiencies: Item 3 is left blank. Item 4(c) is not filled out. There is no box checked in item 7(a). Item 8 is not filled out. There is no notice of hearing with proof of service.
Petitioner shall remedy all of these items prior to the continued hearing.

Appearance required by petitioner Diana Dentoni as to the petition to remove executor and the petition for probate.

The petition for probate is incomplete, as the bond portions have been left blank and the proof of service has not been filled out correctly.

Bond will be required because the will does not waive bond and not all of the beneficiaries are adults who have the legal capacity to waive bond.

Publication must be completed and proof of publication filed with the court before the order for probate can be granted. No appearances are required.

1. CL0000799 Capital One N.A. v. Ortega
No appearances required. The review hearing is VACATED as Default Judgment was entered on 4/11/2024.
2. CL0001148 Miyauchi v. Torbert, et al.
The Demurrer to the Second Amended Complaint is OVERRULED. “'A demurrer tests the pleadings alone and not the evidence or other extrinsic matters. Therefore, it lies only where the defects appear on the face of the pleading or are judicially noticed (Code Civ. Proc., §§ 430.30, 430.70). The only issue involved in a demurrer hearing is whether the complaint, as it stands, unconnected with extraneous matters, states a cause of action.'” Hahn v. Mirda (2007) 147 Cal.App.4th 740, 747. Accord McKenney v. Purepac Pharmaceutical Co. (2008) 162 Cal.App.4th 72, 79.
Contrary to defendants’ assertions, the Second Amended Complaint adequately sets forth a cause of action, is not uncertain and is verified. In addition, the Court does not agree Paul Law Property Management is an indispensable party to this action solely due to the fact this entity is listed as one of two landlords on the lease agreement attached to the complaint. Plaintiff is a signatory to the agreement and, more importantly, is the asserted owner of the real property at issue. CCP 367 provides: “Every action must be prosecuted in the name of the real party in interest, except as otherwise provided by statute.” As such, plaintiff is within their rights to bring the instant action. Defendant has failed to cite any authority for the proposition that a management company is a necessary party in an unlawful detainer case which has been brought by the owner of the property.
Plaintiff shall prepare, file and cause to be served on defendants an order after hearing setting forth the Court’s ruling verbatim. Each Defendant’s responsive pleading is due within five (5) days of service.
3. CL0001499 Midland Credit Management Inc. v. Nisbet
Appearance required by plaintiff to show cause as to why this action should not be dismissed for failure to timely serve the Summons and Complaint in this action.

6. CU0000824 Paragon Industries, Inc. v. Domain Builders, et al.
No appearance required. The Order to Show Cause is continue to August 26, 2024 at 1:30 p.m. in Dept. A. The Court notes an order for service by publication was entered on May 13, 2024 and expects a proof of service as to defendant Anglin to be filed prior to the continued date.
7. CU0001110 and CU0001111 In Re Shana Behan
Appearances by all interested parties required for both name change requests. The Court is inclined to consolidate both name change actions with the now transferred in family law case and grant both requests for change of name of minors.
8. FL0002292 Behan v. Adams
Appearances required by the parties for Status Conference hearing as this case has now been transferred to Nevada County.
9. CU0001158 Crosby & Sons Inc. v. Borole, et al.
The Court DENIES without prejudice the Motion to be Relieved as County filed by Krogh & Decker, LLP. The proofs of service on file indicate notice was not timely given. While the Court notes service was effectuated by both mail and email, there is nothing on file in this case evidencing an agreement by parties to accept email service. The Court also notes the Motion fails to state any basis whatsoever upon which the Court could grant relief. While the Court is not inviting or requesting moving counsel to divulge attorney/client confidential information or communications, a Court is required to find a basis upon which the relief could be granted. Here, there is none. For example, there is not even an indication the attorney/client relationship has suffered an irremediable breakdown.
10. CU0001194 Lavoie v. Piping Rock Equestrian Center, LLC, et al.
Appearance required by plaintiff. There is still not proof of service on file as to defendant Tamara Smith.
