[TENTATIVE] ORDER RE: DEFENDANT ANDARNIK HOVHANNISYAN’S MOTION TO CONTINUE TRIAL

 

Dept. 27

1:30 p.m.

September 27, 2022

 

 

 

 

On April 7, 2020, plaintiffs Seydi Marleni Rodriguez and William Estrada  filed this action against defendants Andarnik Hovhannisyan and Naira Hovhannisyan arising from an automobile collision that occurred on December 26, 2018.  On October 16, 2020, Plaintiff dismissed Naira Hovhannisyan, leaving Andarnik Hochannisyan (“Defendant”) as the remaining defendant. 

Trial is currently scheduled for December 14, 2022.  On August 22, 2022, Defendant filed this motion seeking an order continuing the trial date to June 15, 2023.  The motion is unopposed. 

On September 19, 2022, Defendant filed a stipulation between the parties to continue the trial date to June 29, 2023 and for all related cut-off dates to correspond with the new trial date.  June 29, 2023 is not available and the first available trial date thereafter is July 7, 2022.  Accordingly, based on the unopposed motion and the submitted stipulation, the Court GRANTS Defendant’s unopposed motion. 

Trial is continued from December 14, 2022 to July 7, 2023 at 8:30 a.m. in Department 27.  The final status conference is continued from November 30, 2022 to June 23, 2023  at 10:00 a.m. in Department 27.  All pretrial deadlines including discovery and motion cut-off dates are to be based on the new trial date.
