The court will hear from the parties. In addition to any oral argument that the parties would like to make, the court requests the parties address the following questions: 1. The only motion on calendar is Plaintiff's motion for summary adjudication. Did Defendant calendar a hearing for its own motion? 2. Was there a date certain when Plaintiffs claim they terminated Focus prior to Focus's December 31, 2016 email informing clients that it would no longer be in business and/or Xtera's email to Focus formally terminating Focus on behalf of Plaintiffs? 3. How could Mr. Gutierrez or Focus have been 'ready, willing and able' to continue work on the project if there was no longer a license? 4. Of what significance to this action is it that Focus was unlicensed in the first months of the demolition in 2014 even though it was licensed during grading, construction, and when the damage began? 5. Of what significance is it that the damage began during the 2015/2016 Policy rather than the 2016/2017 Policy? Calendar No.: Event ID:  TENTATIVE RULINGS
