Candell v. Andreassian
Plaintiff’s Motion to Set Aside the Order for Dismissal, filed on 10/15/19, is GRANTED. The dismissal entered on 10/9/19 is vacated. Cal Code Civil Procedure § 473(b). The motion is timely made and based on the Declaration of D. Hess Panah.
If there is no prejudice, only slight evidence is needed. Doubts are resolved in favor of the party seeking relief. Mink v. Superior Court (1992) 2 Cal.App.4th 1338.
A motion for order to vacate dismissal must be filed within six months of the dismissal and show grounds of mistake, inadvertence, surprise, and excusable neglect. Cal Code Civil Procedure § 436(b).
The motion is timely made and is supported by the Declaration of D. Hess Panah, who failed to properly calendar the trial date, which supports a showing of excusable neglect. Declaration of D. Hess Panah, 6:7-11. Flores v. Board of Supervisors (1970) 13 Cal. App. 3d 480, 483.
The Court notes that there is no proof of service of the summons and complaint in the file. The Court sets an OSC re dismissal for failure to file a proof of service for April 13, 2020.
Moving party is ordered to give notice.
