Case Number: 22STCV19458    Hearing Date: December 16, 2024    Dept: 27

Hon. Lee S. Arian, Dept 27 

MOTION TO CONTINUE

Hearing Date: 12/16/24¿ 

CASE NO./NAME: 22STCV19458 BRADLEY SCHENK vs KATHRYNN ANGELL, et al.

Moving Party: Defendants

Responding Party: Plaintiff¿ 

Notice: Sufficient¿ 

Ruling: MOTION GRANTED

While the Court primarily agrees with Plaintiff that the bases for the requested continuance are mostly insufficient and unpersuasive, the trial conflict with a much older case is a good cause basis for a continuance.  The Court thus continues trial to April 28, 2025, and continues the FSC to April 14, 2025.  Discover is continued to align with the new trial date only for discovery related Dr. Corday.  The new trial date is to be deemed firm.

NOTICE:

If a party intends to submit on this tentative ruling, the party must send an email to the court at sscdept27@lacourt.org with the Subject line “SUBMIT” followed by the case number.  The body of the email must include the hearing date and time, counsel’s contact information, and the identity of the party submitting.

Unless all parties submit by email to this tentative ruling, the parties should arrange to appear remotely (encouraged) or in person for oral argument.  You should assume that others may appear at the hearing to argue.

If the parties neither submit nor appear at hearing, the Court may take the motion off calendar or adopt the tentative ruling as the order of the Court.  After the Court has issued a tentative ruling, the Court may prohibit the withdrawal of the subject motion without leave.
