Department 54, Judge Maurice A. Leiter
Motion to Vacate Terminating Sanctions
Moving Party: Plaintiff Kumi Kawamura
Responding Party: None
T/R: PLAINTIFF’S
MOTION TO VACATE TERMINATING SANCTIONS IS DENIED.
PLAINTIFF TO NOTICE.
If the parties wish to submit on the tentative, please email the
courtroom at SMCdept54@lacourt.org with notice to opposing
counsel (or self-represented party) before 8:00 am on the day of the hearing.
The Court considers the moving papers.
No opposition has been received.
Plaintiff moves to vacate the Court’s July
2023 order granting terminating sanctions against Plaintiff for Plaintiff’s
repeated failure to respond to discovery. Plaintiff asserts that she believed
her attorney was responding to discovery while he represented her, and that
various family medical issues prevented her from participating in the action.
There are no proofs of service attached
to the motion. Plaintiff must serve a noticed motion on all parties to the
action to allow them to respond.
Plaintiff’s motion is DENIED.
