[TENTATIVE] ORDER RE: APPLICATION FOR DEFAULT JUDGMENT

 

Dept. 3

)

 

 

Plaintiff Sarsev Properties, LLC (“Plaintiff”) seeks a default judgment against defendants DNA Tech, Pink Fox, Pink Fox Staffing, DOP Art Studios, Tech Resources Management, Arman Siradeghyan, and Rebud (collectively ,“Defendants”) of $175,592.88, consisting of $151,302 in damages, $15,130.20 in prejudgment interest, $8,000 in attorney fees, and $1,160.68 in costs. Plaintiff’s application for default judgment is deficient because the declaration of Sevak Thomas Fagerian fails to establish any basis for the damages claimed, including any unpaid rent or work performed to repair the property damage caused by Defendants. There is also no basis for the $8,000 requested for attorney fees in light of the schedule for default cases set forth in Local Rule 3.214.  

Therefore, the hearing is continued to _____________ so that Plaintiff may submit evidence to substantiate the judgment requested. All additional evidence and documentation must be filed no later than 5 court days before the hearing date.

Dated this 14th day of April 2025
