Tentative Rulings
Case Number: ****0123 Hearing Date: January 03, 2020 Dept: 3
SUPERIOR COURT OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
FOR THE COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES - CENTRAL DISTRICT
| SAINI SINGH, Plaintiff(s), vs. ACF PROPERTY MANAGEMENT, INC., ET AL., Defendant(s). | ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) | CASE NO: ****0123 [TENTATIVE] ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANT’S MOTION TO CONTINUE TRIAL DATE Dept. 3 1:30 p.m. January 3, 2020 |
Plaintiff, Saini Singh filed this action against Defendants, ACF Property Management, Inc., James Jr. Conway, and the Salvation Army for damages arising out of an automobile accident. Plaintiff filed the original complaint on 10/18/17, and filed an FAC on 3/13/18. Numerous parties have been added by way of Doe and Roe amendments. On 10/02/19, 10/03/19, and 10/09/19, Charter Communications, Inc. was added to the complaint and cross-complaints by way of doe and roe amendments.
Trial is currently scheduled for 3/06/20. Charter Communications moves to continue trial. It argues it was only recently added to the case, it has had insufficient time to conduct discovery, it needs time to review the case and consider settlement options, and it needs time to prepare for trial and file a dispositive motion if necessary. Charter Communications filed its answer to the complaint and cross-complaints on 11/06/19, only four months prior to the currently scheduled trial date.
Plaintiff opposes the motion. Plaintiff concedes a trial continuance is necessary, but contends the case is a simple automobile accident case, and suggests trial should be continued to no later than August of 2020.
The Court finds Defendant’s very recent addition to the case constitutes good cause for a continuance of the trial date. The Court finds the request to continue the action to November of 2020 reasonable, as defendants typically have more than one year to prepare for trial once named in civil actions.
The 3/06/20 trial date is advanced to today’s date and continued to Wednesday, 11/04/20 at 8:30 a.m. in Department 3 of the Spring Street Courthouse. The 2/21/20 FSC date is advanced to today’s date and continued to 10/21/20 at 10:00 a.m. in Department 3. All discovery cut-off deadlines are continued to reflect the new trial date. Moving Defendant is ordered to give notice.
Parties who intend to submit on this tentative must send an email to the court at sscdept3@lacourt.org indicating intention to submit on the tentative as directed by the instructions provided on the court website at www.lacourt.org. If the department does not receive an email indicating the parties are submitting on the tentative and there are no appearances at the hearing, the motion may be placed off calendar. If a party submits on the tentative, the party’s email must include the case number and must identify the party submitting on the tentative.
