Morales VS Extended Stay America, Inc.

Jul 18, 2024 |Civil Unlimited (Other Personal Injury/Propert...) |RG20061971

RG20061971: Morales VS Extended Stay America, Inc. 07/18/2024 Hearing on Motion to Reclassify (Walker Motion) filed by ESA Management, LLC (Defendant) + in Department 518Tentative Ruling - 07/16/2024 Victoria KolakowskiThe Motion to Reclassify filed by ESA Management, LLC, Extended Stay America, Inc. on06/13/2024 is Denied.I. BackgroundNahum Morales sued Extended Stay America, Inc. and ESA Management, LLC (“Defendants”),among others, for injuries allegedly sustained after being bit by bedbugs after staying anExtended Stay America hotel in Union City, California. (Compl. ¶ 1, May 11, 2020.) In hiscomplaint—filed as an unlimited civil action—Morales requested to recover an unspecifiedamount of general, specific, and punitive damages, among other claims for relief. (Id. § 7.)Defendants filed an answer generally denying the allegations and asserting several affirmativedefenses. (Answer, Feb. 16, 2021.)Following Morales’s responses to Defendants’ discovery requests and testimony from hisdeposition about his medical expenses and property damage, Defendants moved to reclassify theaction as a limited civil action. (Mot., June 13, 2024.) Defendants argued Morales’s knownmedical expenses were under the $35,000.00 threshold and that Morales lacked evidence tosupport his property damage claim. (Id. 7:4–9:23, 10:19–11:13; see also Reply Mem. 2:4–11(noting SB-71 (enacted October 13, 2023, raised amount in controversy to $35,000.00).)Morales opposed. (Opp’n Mem., July 3, 2024.) Morales noted that he sought $250,000.00 ingeneral damages along with his claim for special damages for his medical expenses. (Id. 3:15–4:9.)II. Legal Standard“[A] defendant . . . may file a motion for reclassification within the time allowed for that party torespond to the initial pleading.” (Code Civ. Proc. § 403.040(a).) “If a party files a motion forreclassification after the time for that party . . . to respond to a complaint . . . , the court shallgrant the motion and enter an order for reclassification only if both of the following conditionsare satisfied: [¶] [t]he case is incorrectly classified[] [¶] [t]he moving party shows good cause fornot seeking reclassification earlier.” (§ 403.040(b)(1), (2).) “The court shall grant the motion andenter an order for reclassification, regardless of any fault or lack of fault, if the case has beenclassified in an incorrect jurisdictional classification.” (§ 403.040(a); see also Ytuarte v. Super.Ct. (Kashani) (2005) 129 Cal. App. 4th 266, 277 (“[A] matter may be reclassified as a limitedcivil action ‘when (i) the absence of jurisdiction is apparent before trial from the complaint,petition, or related documents, or (ii) during the course of pretrial litigation, it becomes clear thatthe matter will “necessarily” result in a verdict below the superior court’s jurisdictional amount .. . .”) (quoting Walker v. Super. Ct. (Slaton), 53 Cal. 3d 257, 262).) “This standard involves an SUPERIOR COURT OF CALIFORNIA COUNTY OF ALAMEDA RG20061971: Morales VS Extended Stay America, Inc. 07/18/2024 Hearing on Motion to Reclassify (Walker Motion) filed by ESA Management, LLC (Defendant) + in Department 518evaluation of the amount fairly in controversy, not an adjudication of the merits of the claim, andaccording to Walker, requires a ‘high level of certainty that [the] damage award will not exceed$[3]5,000.’” (Id. (quoting Walker, 53 Cal. 3d at 269.)III. DiscussionThe Court finds that Morales’s action does not necessarily involve less than $35,000.00.Defendants did not carry their burden of showing that the damage award cannot exceed themonetary threshold. Accordingly, the Court will not reclassify this action as a limited civil case.IV. OrderThe motion is DENIED.PLEASE NOTE: Pursuant to California Rule of Court 3.1308, subdivision (a)(1), this tentativeruling will become the order of the Court unless it is contested before 4:00 PM on the court daypreceding the noticed hearing.To contest a tentative ruling, a party should do the following:First, the party must notify Department 518, by email at Dept518@alameda.courts.ca.gov andcopy all counsel of record and self-represented parties.

LEGAL STANDARD The Civil Discovery Act requires the court to impose monetary sanctions on a party who unsuccessfully opposes a motion to compel initial or further discovery responses. (See Code Civ. Proc., §§ 2030.290(c), 2030.300(d), 2031.300(c), 2031.310(h), 2033.280(c), 2033.290(d).) If a party then fails to obey an order compelling initial or further response, the Act permits the court at its discretion to impose escalating sanctions, including issue, evidence, or terminating sanctions. (See id., §§ 2030.300(e), 2031.310(i).) DISCUSSION On April 18, 2024, the Court ordered Plaintiff to appear for deposition and produce documents on May 21, 2024, and to pay $450.00 in monetary sanctions within sixty (60) days. (See 04-18-2024 Minute Order.) Laras counsels uncontradicted declaration establishes Plaintiff did not comply with any part of this order. (McNulty Decl., ¶¶ 5-6.) The Court has the discretion to impose escalating sanctions. However, a terminating sanction remains slightly premature. In imposing discovery sanctions, [t]he trial court should consider both the conduct being sanctioned and its effect on the party seeking discovery[.] (Id., 992.) Sanctions should be tailored to the harm created by the withheld discovery and should not be used as punishment. (Ibid.) The court should also consider whether the discovery misconduct was willful and whether the requesting party was prejudiced by the others failure to comply. (Do It Urself Moving & Storage, Inc. v. Brown, Leifer, Slatkin & Berns (1992) 7 Cal.App.4th 27, 37.) Case law suggests the court should take an incremental approach to sanctions, holding that terminating sanctions should be used sparingly and as a last resort, (Department of Forestry & Fire Protection v. Howell (2017) 18 Cal.App.5th 154, 191); that terminating sanctions are the ultimate sanction and should not be automatically imposed for every such disobedience of a discovery order (Karz v. Karl (1982) 137 Cal.App.3d 637, 649); and that less severe alternatives should be attempted unless there is reason to believe they would be ineffective. (Lopez v. Watchtower Bible & Tract Society of New York, Inc. (2016) 246 Cal.App.4th 566, 604.) Here, the facts do not sufficiently establish a willful failure to comply with the Courts order, nor do they establish that lesser sanctions cannot induce Plaintiffs compliance. The Court might have imposed lesser sanctions, but Lara did not request any in the alternative. The Court recognizes that Defendant will suffer prejudice if trial proceeds as scheduled. The Court therefore orders a short continuance and reserves a hearing date for a renewed sanctions motion. The Court will consider terminating sanctions at that time if Plaintiff still has not complied with the Courts order. Whether or not Plaintiff complies, the Court will consider lesser sanctions as appropriate to remediate any prejudice caused by Plaintiffs misconduct. CONCLUSION The Court denies the motion without prejudice. The Court advances to this date the final status conference and jury trial set for August 8 and August 20, 2024, respectively, and continues them to October 3 and October 15, 2024. The Court reserves a hearing date for Defendants renewed sanctions motion on September 4, 2024, at which the Court will reconsider terminating or lesser sanctions depending Plaintiffs compliance with the Courts April 18, 2024 order. Defendant is ordered to give notice by overnight mail and file proof of such with the Court. Dated: July 17, 2024 ___________________________________ Joel L.

JOHN SJ DOE VS CLAREMONT UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT, A CALIFORNIA PUBLIC ENTITY, ET AL.

Jul 16, 2024 |21STCV43583

Case Number: 21STCV43583 Hearing Date: July 16, 2024 Dept: G Defendant Claremont Unified School Districts Motion to Direct Compliance with Business Records Subpoena on Meta Platforms, Inc. Seeking Electronically Stored Information Related to Plaintiffs Social Media Posts Respondent: Plaintiff John SJ Doe and Non-Party Meta Platforms, Inc. Non-Party Meta Platforms, Inc.s Unopposed Motion to Seal Respondent: NO OPPOSITION TENTATIVE RULING Defendant Claremont Unified School Districts Motion to Direct Compliance with Business Records Subpoena on Meta Platforms, Inc. Seeking Electronically Stored Information Related to Plaintiffs Social Media Posts is GRANTED. Non-Party Meta Platforms, Inc. is ordered to serve the requested records on Defendant Claremont Unified School District within twenty (20) days of the issuance of this order. Non-Party Meta Platforms, Inc.s Unopposed Motion to Seal is GRANTED. BACKGROUND This action arises from the sexual abuse of a high school student by school staff. Defendant Brandy Wilborn was a teachers aide employed by Defendant Claremont Unified School District (CUSD) at Claremont High School. Plaintiff John SJ Doe was a student at Claremont High School. From December 2014 to May 2015, Wilborn sexually assaulted, abused, molested, and harassed Doe. Wilborn was then arrested in 2015 and pled no contest to unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor. On November 29, 2021, Doe filed a complaint for damages against CUSD, Wilborn, and Does 1 through 50, alleging the following causes of action: (1) intentional infliction of emotional distress against all defendants; (2) negligence against CUSD and Does 1-50; (3) negligent supervision against CUSD and Does 1-50; (4) negligent retention/hiring against CUSD and Does 1-50; (5) negligent failure to train, warn, or educate against CUSD and Does 1-50; (6) breach of fiduciary duty against all defendants; (7) constructive fraud pursuant to Civil Code, section 1573 against all defendants; (8) sexual harassment pursuant to Civil Code, section 51.9 against all defendants; (9) sexual harassment and abuse in the educational setting pursuant to Education Code, section 220 against CUSD and Does 1-50; (10) sexual battery against Wilborn; (11) gender violence pursuant to Civil Code, section 52.4 against Wilborn; and (12) violation of Penal Code, section 647.6, subdivision (a)(1) against Wilborn. On June 17, 2022, the Court sustained CUSDs demurrer to the Complaint. On September 6, 2022, Doe filed a First Amended Complaint (FAC) against the same defendants alleging the same causes of action. On February 9, 2023, the Court sustained CUSDs demurrer to the FAC. On March 1, 2023, Doe filed a Second Amended Complaint (SAC) against the same defendants alleging the same causes of action. On July 24, 2023, the Court sustained and overruled CUSDs demurrer to the SAC in part without leave to amend. On February 9, 2024, CUSD filed the present motion. After obtaining ex parte relief to file one of the motions exhibits under seal, CUSD refiled the motion on April 25, 2024. On June 11, 2024, CUSD filed a motion for summary judgment. On June 20, 2024, Non-Party Meta Platforms, Inc. (Meta) filed the present motion to seal. A hearing on the present motions is set for July 16, 2024, along with a post-mediation status conference/trial setting conference. CUSDs motion for summary judgment is set for August 27, 2024. ANALYSIS CUSD moves to compel non-party Metas compliance with a deposition subpoena for data from Does Instagram account. For the following reasons, the court GRANTS Does motion. Legal Standard A party seeking discovery from a person who is not a party to the action may obtain discovery by oral deposition, written deposition, or deposition subpoena for production of business records. (Code Civ. Proc., § 2020.010.) A deposition subpoena may command: (1) only the attendance and testimony of the deponent, (2) only the production of business records for copying, or (3) the attendance and testimony of the deponent, as well as the production of business records, other documents, electronically stored information, and tangible things. (Code Civ. Proc., § 2020.020.) Service of a deposition subpoena shall be done with sufficient time in advance of the deposition to provide the deponent a reasonable opportunity to locate and produce any designated documents and, where personal attendance is commanded, a reasonable time to travel to the place of deposition. (Code Civ. Proc., § 2020.220, subd. (a).) Personal service of any deposition subpoena is effective to require a deponent who is a resident of California to: personally appear and testify, if the subpoena so specifies; to produce any specified documents; and to appear at a court session if the subpoena so specifies. (Code Civ. Proc., § 2020.220, subd. (c).) If a deponent fails to appear or produce requested documents for a deposition, the deposing party may file a noticed motion to compel deponents compliance. (Code Civ. Proc., § 1987.1, subd. (a).) A deponent who disobeys a deposition subpoena may also be punished for contempt without the necessity of a prior court order court directing compliance. (Code Civ. Proc., § 2020.240.) A noncompliant deponent may also be ordered to pay $500 to the deposing party in addition to any damages the deposing party incurred as a result of the deponents failure to attend the deposition. (Code Civ. Proc., § 2020.240, citing Code Civ. Proc., § 1992.) Discussion On December 7, 2023, CUSD served a deposition subpoena on Meta requesting the following data from Does Instagram account over a period from April 21, 2013 to 2020: (1) all communications with or relating to Wilborn, (2) all communications referencing Wilborn, (3) all photos posted by Doe, (4) all comments made by Doe, (5) all references by Doe to psychological or emotional distress and treatment, and (6) all posts by Doe referring to potential stressors related to emotional distress. (Kostrenich Decl., ¶ 3, Ex. A.) On December 12, 2023, Meta objected to the subpoena on the grounds that the Stored Communications Act requires subpoenas to be directed at the account user as opposed to the account service provider. (Kostrenich Decl., ¶ 4, Ex. B.) CUSD then proceeded with the present motion. In response, Doe filed a notice of non-opposition stating Doe has no opposition to the Court compelling Meta to comply with CUSDs deposition subpoena. Meta has also filed a notice of non-opposition, stating Meta does not oppose the subpoena if the Court finds Doe lawfully consented to disclosure. But Meta notes CUSD and Doe dispute the mode of production. While CUSD demands the records be produced concurrently to both parties counsel, Doe demands the records be first produced to Does counsel who will then forward any responsive records to CUSD. (Glickman Decl., ¶ 4-5.) But Doe has not made this request in Does notice of non-opposition. Because the Court finds Doe has lawfully consented to the disclosure of Does account data, CUSD is entitled to Metas compliance with the deposition subpoena. Accordingly, the Court GRANTS CUSDs motion. In a separate unopposed motion, Meta requests the Court seal the supporting exhibits for its response to CUSDs motion. To seal records, the Court must expressly find (1) [t]here exists an overriding interest that overcomes the right of public access to the record; (2) [t]he overriding interest supports sealing the record; (3) [a] substantial probability exists that the overriding interest will be prejudiced if the record is not sealed; (4) [t]he proposed sealing is narrowly tailored; and (5) [n]o less restrictive means exist to achieve the overriding interest. (Cal. Rules of Court, Rule 2.550, subd. (d).) Here, because the supporting exhibits contain identifying and personal information for a minor victim of sexual assault, the court finds Does privacy interests outweigh the right of public access and support sealing the record. The court also finds there is a substantial probability that Does privacy interests would be prejudiced if Does personal information is published. Last, the court finds the request is reasonably tailored to the exhibits that contain Does personal information and no less restrictive means exists to protect Does privacy interests. Accordingly, the court GRANTS Metas motion to seal. CONCLUSION Based on the foregoing, CUSDs motion to compel is GRANTED and Meta is ordered to provide all records requested to CUSD within twenty (20) days of the issuance of this order. Furthermore, Metas motion to seal is GRANTED.

The email shall include the case number, date and time of the hearing, counsels contact information (if applicable), and the identity of the party submitting on this tentative ruling.

If all parties do not submit on this tentative ruling, they should arrange to appear in-person or remotely. Further, after the Court has posted/issued a tentative ruling, the Court has the inherent authority to prohibit the withdrawal of the subject motion and adopt the tentative ruling as the order of the Court. TENTATIVE RULING DEPT: 32 HEARING DATE: July 15, 2024 CASE NUMBER: 20STCV13665 MOTIONS: Motion to Compel Plaintiffs Medical Examination MOVING PARTY: Defendant Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority OPPOSING PARTY: Plaintiff Dieudonne Ngnie BACKGROUND On April 8, 2020, Plaintiff Dieudonne Ngnie (Plaintiff) filed a complaint against Defendant Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Defendant) for damages resulting from an alleged motor vehicle accident. Defendant now moves to compel Plaintiffs appearance at a physical examination. Defendant also seeks monetary sanctions. Alternatively, Defendant seeks issue and evidentiary sanctions. Plaintiff opposes. No reply has been filed. LEGAL STANDARD In any case in which a plaintiff is seeking recovery for personal injuries, any defendant may demand one physical examination of the plaintiff, if both of the following conditions are satisfied: (1) The examination does not include any diagnostic test or procedure that is painful, protracted, or intrusive. (2) The examination is conducted at a location within 75 miles of the residence of the examinee. (Code Civ. Proc., § 2032.220, subd. (a).)¿¿ Code of Civil Procedure section 2032.250 provides that, when a plaintiff fails to respond to a demand, or refuses to submit to the physical examination, the defendant may move for an order compelling a response to the demand and compelling compliance with the request for an exam. The motion must be accompanied by a meet and confer declaration. The court shall impose a monetary sanction against any party, person, or attorney who unsuccessfully makes or opposes a motion to compel compliance with a demand for a physical examination, unless it finds that the one subject to the sanction acted with substantial justification or that other circ*mstances make the imposition of the sanction unjust. (Code Civ. Proc. § 2032.250 (b).) MEET AND CONFER The Declaration of Nyasha A. Buchongo, Defendants counsel, states the following: On March 29, 2024, Defense Counsel sent a letter to Plaintiff Counsel to meet and confer regarding Plaintiffs availability for the independent medical examination; to which, Defense Counsel received no response. (Buchongo Decl. ¶ 11.) DISCUSSION Plaintiff alleges physical injuries due to the motor vehicle accident, including neck and back injuries and difficulty standing and sitting for extended periods of time. (Buchongo Decl. ¶¶ 34.) Defendant first served notice of the medical examination on December 13, 2023, set for January 23, 2024, with Dr. Russell W. Nelson, a board-certified orthopedic surgeon. On January 16, 2024, Plaintiffs counsel informed Defendant that Plaintiff could not attend. (Buchongo Decl. ¶ 7.) Plaintiff did not appear. As a result, Defendant seeks to compel Plaintiffs examination on July 25, 2024 at 1:30 p.m. at Dr. Nelsons office. Plaintiff has not undergone any previous independent medical examination. In opposition, Plaintiff asserts that he will appear at the examination on July 25, 2024. Plaintiff did not appear because he was out of the country until late March 2024. Plaintiffs counsel states that he then lost contact with Plaintiff. (Ghobrial Decl. ¶ 5.) On July 1, 2024, counsel re-established contact and learned that Plaintiff currently resides in Togo, due to personal family reasons, but intends to appear at the examination on July 25, 2024. (Id. ¶ 7.) Defendant has not filed a reply. Therefore, based on the information above, because Plaintiff failed to appear at the first noticed examination, the motion to compel is granted. Because the motion is granted, the Court will not address the request for issue and evidentiary sanctions. Defendants seek $3,000 in monetary sanctions, representing an hourly rate of $250, and the $750 late cancellation fee. Because Plaintiff failed to inform Defendant within ten days that he could not attend the examination to avoid a late cancellation fee, and it appears Plaintiff did not respond to Defendants efforts to meet and confer in late-March, the Court finds sanctions are warranted, but the amount requested is excessive. Therefore, the Court awards $1,125 in monetary sanctions (1.5 hours of attorney time plus the late cancellation fee). CONCLUSION AND ORDER Accordingly, Defendants motion to compel Plaintiffs medical examination is GRANTED. Plaintiff Dieudonne Ngnie shall appear on July 25, 2024 at Dr. Russell W. Nelsons office for a medical examination. The Court further grants Defendants request for monetary sanctions in the reduced amount of $1.125 against Plaintiff and his counsel of record, jointly and severally. Said monetary sanction shall be paid to counsel for Defendant within 30 days. Defendant shall provide notice of the Courts order and file a proof of service of such.
