Case Number: 23STCV27751    Hearing Date: August 6, 2024    Dept: 52

Order to Show Cause Re: Default Judgment

Plaintiff Charlotte Duh filed a complaint against defendant Angie Chou.  The clerk entered Chou’s default on April 24, 2024.  Plaintiff has not filed a request for court judgment by default.  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 defendant’s default more than 45 days ago.  The court will set an order to show cause re: why plaintiff should not pay $100 in sanctions under rule 3.110(h).

            The order to show cause re: default judgment is hereby continued to October 3, 2024, at 8:30 a.m.  The court hereby sets an order to show cause re: why plaintiff should not pay $100 in sanctions under rule 3.110(h) for October 3, 2024, at 8:30 a.m.
