On June 3, 2024, Defendant Bitcomin Hospitality LLC served its Requests for Admission, Set One, Form Interrogatories, Set One, Special Interrogatories, Set One, and Requests for Production of Documents, Set One on Plaintiff. Plaintiff’s responses were due on or before July 8, 2024. On July 31, 2024, Defendant attempted to meet and confer with Plaintiff’s counsel and granted Plaintiff’s request for an extension to respond by August 28, 2024. However, to date, no responses have been provided.

Defendant now moves the Court to compel responses to the outstanding discovery and to deem the Requests for Admission, Set One, admitted.

No opposition has been filed, and there is no indication that Plaintiff served responses prior to the hearing date. Accordingly, the motions are granted. Plaintiff is ordered to serve verified and complete responses to Defendant’s Form Interrogatories, Set One, Special Interrogatories, Set One, and Requests for Production of Documents, Set One, within 20 days of this order. The matters contained in Defendant’s Requests for Admission, Set One, are deemed admitted against Plaintiff.

Defendant did not request sanctions.

Parties who intend to submit on this tentative must send an email to the Court at SSCDEPT27@lacourt.org indicating intention to submit on the tentative as directed by the instructions provided on the court’s website at www.lacourt.org. Please be advised that if you submit on the tentative and elect not to appear at the hearing, the opposing party may nevertheless appear at the hearing and argue the matter. Unless you receive a submission from all other parties in the matter, you should assume that others might appear at the hearing to argue. If the Court does not receive emails from the parties indicating submission on this tentative ruling and there are no appearances at the hearing, the Court may, at its discretion, adopt the tentative as the final order or place the motion off calendar.
