[TENTATIVE] ORDER
RE: PLAINTIFF’S REQUEST FOR DEFAULT JUDGMENT |
||
Plaintiff Security National Insurance Company
(“Plaintiff”) requests that the Court enter default judgment against Defendants
Keon Khatibi, a natural person and dba Solter Plastics; Solter Plastics Inc.;
and Solter Plastics Inc. [Entity No. 5169287]. Plaintiff seeks judgment in the
total amount of $46,830.37, comprising $32,419.44 in damages, $13,650.93 in
interest, and $760.00 in costs.
The
Court notes that Plaintiff seeks interest from April 30, 2019 through July 17,
2023. (Walton Decl., ¶ 16.) Plaintiff asserts that judgment was entered in the
underlying matter Security National Insurance Company v. Solter Plastics Inc., Los Angeles County Superior
Court, Case No. 18CHLC28924 on April 30, 2019.
(Walton Decl., ¶ 6, Ex. A.) However, the Clerk’s Judgment attached as
Exhibit “A” to Mr. Walton’s declaration appears to indicate that the Judgment
was entered by the Clerk on May 1, 2019. (Ibid.) Thus, it appears
that the requested interest should be calculated from May 1, 2019, not April
30, 2019.
Plaintiff
may file a revised Form CIV-100 and Form JUD-100 prior to the hearing. If the
above-referenced defect is corrected before the hearing, the Court will grant
Plaintiff’s request.
