Judge: Elaine Lu, Case: 23STCP03393, Date: 2023-10-23 Tentative Ruling

Case Number: 23STCP03393    Hearing Date: December 11, 2023    Dept: 26

The petition is denied on the ground that no proof of publication has been filed.  The Court has already continued the hearing once to allow Petitioner additional time to file proof of publication, but Petitioner has nonetheless failed to file proof of publication.  The petition is dismissed without prejudice.  Petitioner may file a new petition and file proof of publication. 

Petitioner has also failed to provide any form of identification tied to a fingerprint on file, which is necessary for Probation to run a criminal history assessment.  On October 23, 2023, the Court continued the petition explicitly noting this issue and ordered Petitioner to provide Probation with some form of identification verified by a fingerprint to enable Probation to run a criminal history assessment and identified how this may be done.  However, Petitioner failed to do so.  Accordingly, the instant petition is DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE. Petitioner may submit a new petition addressing the lack of identification tied to a fingerprint for Probation to run a criminal history assessment.

Court Clerk to give notice.
