Tentative Ruling
Hamilton v. Frisco et al., Case No. SC116414
Hearing Date August 10, 2022
Plaintiff’s Motion for Order to Issue Consumer Credit Report (UNOPPOSED)

Judgment was entered against defendant Frisco in favor of plaintiff Hamilton for $194,906.39. Hamilton states his attempts to recover the judgment – including collection calls, letters, a bank levy, and an Order for Appearance and Examination – were unsuccessful. Hamilton moves for issuance of a consumer credit report under Cal. Civ. Code §1785.11.

A consumer credit reporting agency shall only furnish a consumer credit report under specifically defined circumstances, including in response to the order of a court having jurisdiction to issue an order. Cal. Civ. Code §1785.3(c).

Hamilton argues the court should order an issuance of a consumer credit report to assist with enforcement of the judgment. Hamilton has not provided any statute or precedent indicating this is a proper basis for a court order under §1785.3. Though no opposition was filed, Hamilton must provide legal support for his request. DENIED without prejudice or continued, at plaintiff’s request.
