Order to Show Cause Re: Entry of Default and Default Judgment

California Rules of Court, rule 3.110(h) provides, “When a default is entered, the party who requested the entry of default must obtain a default judgment against the defaulting party within 45 days after the default was entered, unless the court has granted an extension of time. The court may issue an order to show cause why sanctions should not be imposed if that party fails to obtain entry of judgment against a defaulting party or to request an extension of time to apply for a default judgment within that time.”

The clerk entered the default of defendant Isaiah U Valle on September 15, 2022. More than 90 days have passed. Plaintiff Connect By American Family has not filed a request for default judgment and has not requested an extension of time.

The court hereby sets an order to show cause why plaintiff Connect By American Family should not pay $250 in sanctions under rule 3.110(h) for February 17, 2023, at 8:30 a.m.

The court hereby continues the order to show cause re: default judgment to February 17, 2023, at 8:30 a.m.
