         vs.

 

LJ & J DISTRIBUTORS, INC.

 Case No.:  23STCV30974

 

 

 

 Hearing Date:  July 16, 2024

 

The Court denies Plaintiff’s default judgment packet. 

The Court sets a hearing on an order to show cause why the complaint should not be dismissed and/or Plaintiff’s counsel sanctioned $250 for failing to enter default judgment (California Rule of Court, rule 3.110(h)) on September 17, 2024, at 8:30 AM in Department 71 at Stanley Mosk Courthouse for the following reason:

1.    Plaintiff does not calculate attorneys’ fees per the Local Rule 3.2 schedule.

 

Plaintiff requests $6,940.39 in attorneys’ fees.

 

The Court calculates attorneys’ fees per the Local Rule 3.2 schedule as follows:

 

($57,754.41 + $46,121.40) = $103,875.81

$103,875.81 - $100,000 = $3,875.81 x .01 = $38.76

$38.76 + $2,890.00 = $2,928.76
