Case Number: 22AHCV01147    Hearing Date: August 28, 2023    Dept: 3

SUPERIOR COURT OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA

FOR THE COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES - NORTHEAST DISTRICT

Plaintiff AATC & Koo LLC (“Plaintiff”) seeks a default judgment against Wenyang Lu and The Magic Herb (collectively, “Defendants”) in the amount of $43,022, consisting of $40,537 as demanded in the complaint, $485 in costs, and $2,000 in attorney fees.  The default package is incomplete and cannot be approved for the following reasons:

1)   No proposed judgment is on file. 

2)   The request for attorney fees is not calculated according to Local Rule 3.214.  Counsel does not explain why $2,000 in attorney fees is warranted instead of $1,606.11.    

The Default Prove-Up Hearing is continued to ________ at 8:30 a.m. in Department 3 of the Alhambra Courthouse. 

Dated this 28th day of August, 2023
