Keith Hernandez vs Daniel Lopez, et al., Case No. 24NWCV00960

This is an unlawful detainer action. Plaintiff moves ex parte to advance the hearing on Defendants’ demurrer.

A party may seek ex parte relief upon an affirmative factual showing "irreparable harm, immediate danger, or any other statutory basis for granting relief ex parte." (Cal. R. Ct. 3.1202(c).)

Defendants’ demurrer is currently scheduled for December 17, 2024. Plaintiff contends that unlawful detainer actions have a right to a quick and expeditious remedy as established by statute. (See CCP § 1179a and § 1170.5(a).)

The Court finds that Plaintiff would be harmed by delay by possibly being deprived of possession of the subject property.

Accordingly, Plaintiff’s ex parte application is GRANTED. Defendants’ demurrer is ADVANCED from Tuesday, December 17, 2024 to today’s date and CONTINUED to Tuesday, June 4, 2024 at 10:30 a.m. in Department SE-C.  Opposition is due May 29, 2024 and Reply is due May 31, 2024. 

Moving party to give notice.
