Judge: Mark H. Epstein, Case: 24SMCV01271, Date: 2025-03-20 Tentative Ruling

Case Number: 24SMCV01271    Hearing Date: March 20, 2025    Dept: I

The court is not sure it understands the motion.  The motion is to dismiss, but it reads like a motion that the judgment be set aside.  However, the court has not entered a judgment in this case.  There is a judgment, but the court does not really understand how this court can decide a motion to vacate it and the court sees no ground articulated that would allow it to do so.  The bottom line is that the court does not believe that the moving papers articulate a cognizable motion, and therefore the motion is DENIED ON THAT BASIS.
