Judge: Mark H. Epstein, Case: 23SMCP00627, Date: 2024-02-22 Tentative Ruling

Case Number: 23SMCP00627    Hearing Date: February 22, 2024    Dept: I

The unopposed petition to confirm the arbitration award is DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.  The actual petition to confirm is not signed by counsel, which the court presumes is an oversight.  An updated (signed) version needs to be filed.  Further, there is no proof of service of the motion, which is also required.  Assuming that a signed petition and a POS is filed, and assuming there is still no opposition, the court would be inclined to grant.
