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, opposition, and reply.

 

CCP § 2031.320(a) provides “[i]f a party filing a response to a demand for inspection, copying, testing, or sampling. . . thereafter fails to permit the inspection, copying, testing, or sampling in accordance with that party's statement of compliance, the demanding party may move for an order compelling compliance.”

 

Plaintiff moves to compel compliance with Defendant’s statement of compliance for RPDs nos. 27 and 186. In opposition, Defendant represents that it will serve responsive documents by October 15, 2023. As Defendant states it will comply, the motion is DENIED as MOOT.
