Case Number: 23STCV04130 Hearing Date: August 9, 2023 Dept: 50
|
FARIBA SONGHORIAN, Plaintiff(s), v. FCA
US, LLC., et al , Defendant(s). |
Case No.: 23STCV04130 DISCLOSURE AND ORDER |
Judge
Beaudet hereby discloses that approximately 23 years ago, she and her husband
purchased a pickup truck for her husband’s use that he recalls was either a
Dodge or Chrysler pickup; Judge Beaudet does not remember the maker of the
pickup. The pickup developed electrical
problems. Judge Beaudet’s husband took
the pickup in to the dealer many times for the same electrical problem. The pickup was tested with some device while it
was operating, and eventually, the manufacturer and the dealer agreed to take
the pickup back and refund the purchase price.
No litigation was involved. Judge
Beaudet does not believe that her experience will cause her to be biased for or
against either party. However,
if you believe differently, you will have until August 15, 2023, to file and
serve a verified statement of disqualification per section CCP 170.3(c)(1) (the
“Statement”). If you do not file and
serve a Statement, grounds for recusal will be deemed waived. The hearing on the
Case Management Conference will be continued to August 22, 2023, at 10:00 a.m. in Department 50 unless both parties
waive the right to file the Statement. Plaintiff is ordered to give notice of
this Disclosure to any new parties who are added to the case and to file proof
of service of same promptly after service, with a courtesy copy delivered to
Department 50. Any new party has 14 calendar days from the date of service to
file and serve the Statement per section CCP 170.3.
DATED: August 8, 2023
