July 14, 2025 Truckee Civil Tentative Rulings

June 23, 2025 Department A Law and Motion Tentative Rulings

1. CU0001005 Forest vs. Caltrans, et al.

Plaintiffs’ Motion to Compel Defendants’ Responses to Form Interrogatories is granted.  Defendants do not disagree such responses are overdue, and both assert they will provide written responses to Form Interrogatories (Set One) without objections potentially prior to hearing on the pending motion, but no later than June 30, 2025. (See, Defendants’ Opposition, Page 3, ll. 5-9 and 15-18.) Accordingly, the Court orders Defendants shall serve written responses to Plaintiffs’ Form Interrogatories, without objections, by June 30, 2025.

Plaintiffs’ Motions to Compel Defendants’ Responses to Special Interrogatories (Set One) and Requests for Production of Documents (Set One) is granted. Here, Defendants served objection only responses to Plaintiffs’ Special Interrogatories and Requests for Production on July 12, 2024. Thus, verifications to these responses were not required, and the 45-day timeframe in which to file a motion to compel further responses began with the service of the objections. See, Code Civ. Proc. §2030.250(a). However, the vast majority of Defendants’ responses to both these Special Interrogatories and Requests for Production were blank, with objections entered specifically in only a handful of responses.

An evasive or incomplete response can be treated as a failure to respond. See, City of Los Angeles v. PricewaterhouseCoopers, LLP (2024) 17 Cal.5th 46, 57.) Submitting boilerplate objections to a discovery request is not an appropriate or substantive response. Moreover, a response to some interrogatories does not divest a trial court of authority under CCP § 2030.290 to compel answers to interrogatories as to which there was no appropriate response. (See Sinaiko Healthcare Consulting, Inc. v. Pacific Healthcare Consultants (2007) 148 Cal.App.4th 390, 406.) Therefore, while Defendants’ preserved their objections to the discovery requests to which Defendants made specific objections, technically no responses were provided to the remaining requests. Additionally, the legislative intent in establishing the statutory methods of obtaining discovery in the Discovery Act is to construe the provisions liberally in allowing discovery. See, Sinaiko, supra at 402; See also, CCP §2017.010.

Further, denying Plaintiffs’ motions would dictate a nonsensical result of time barring Plaintiffs from filing motions to compel further responses when no substantial responses were served in the first place. Moreover, Defendants have agreed to provide responses in substantial compliance without objections (except for those preserved) by June 30, 2025. (See, Defendants’ Opposition, Page 3, ll. 5-9 and 15-18.) Accordingly, the Court grants Plaintiffs’ Motions to Compel Defendants’ Responses to Special Interrogatories (Set One) and Requests for Production of Documents (Set One), and orders Defendants to provide responses, without objections except for those preserved in the July 12, 2024 responses, by June 30, 2025.

Plaintiffs’ Motion to Compel Responses to Request for Admissions (Set One) is denied as moot. Plaintiffs’ motion is also denied as to deeming the requests admitted. California Code of Civil Procedure §1010 provides in pertinent part, “Notices must be in writing, and the notice of a motion, other than for a new trial, must state when, and the grounds upon which it will be made.” Plaintiffs’ Notice of Motion only moves for an order compelling Defendants provide responses to the requests for admission. It does not move for an order deeming the requests admitted. Defendants’ responses to Plaintiffs’ Requests for Admission (Set One) were served on June 9, 2025, and verifications of those responses were served on June 18, 2025. Accordingly, Plaintiffs’ Motion to Compel Defendants’ Responses to Requests for Admission (Set One) is denied as moot.

Based on the above orders, Plaintiffs are deemed to have prevailed in their motion with the sole exception being with regard to the motion to compel as to Plaintiffs’ Request for Admissions (Set One).  A party being successful in a discovery motion is the only prerequisite to the statute mandating the Court issue sanctions against the non-prevailing party, here, Defendants. See, CCP §2030.290(c) and §2031.300(c). However, based on the fact Plaintiffs specifically indicate they “are not asking for monetary sanctions here” (see, Plaintiffs’ Reply, Page 3, line 3), the Court finds such circumstance coupled with the lack of notice and opportunity to be heard on the issue of amount of sanctions make “the imposition of [a] sanction unjust” in this situation. CCP§2030.290(c). §2030.300(d); §2031.300(c).

2.  CU0001216           Greg Bomhoff vs. Michael Decarlo et al

Defendant Lake of the Pines Association’s (hereinafter, “LOP”) Demurrer to the Second Amended Complaint is sustained without leave to amend in part and overruled in part.

LOP’s request for judicial notice is granted; however, the Court takes judicial notice of the pleadings as requested yet not the truth of the contents therein.  “Although the existence of a document may be judicially noticeable, the truth of statements contained in the document and its proper interpretation are not subject to judicial notice if those matters are reasonably in dispute.  (Unruh-Haxton v. Regents of University of California (2008) 162 Cal.App.4th 343, 364, quoting Freemont Indemnity Co. v. Fremont General Corp. (2007) 148 Cal.App.4th 97, 113.)  “Taking judicial notice of a document is not the same as accepting the truth of its contents or accepting a particular interpretation of its meaning” and “[t]he hearing on demurrer may not be turned into a contested evidentiary hearing through the guise of having the court take judicial notice of documents whose … proper interpretation are disputable.”  (Id. at 365, quoting Indemnity, supra, 148.Cal. App.4th at 113-114.)  Put another way, when a court takes judicial notice of a document, “the truthfulness and proper interpretation of the document are disputable.” StorMedia Inc. v. Superior Court (1999) 20 Cal.4th 449, 457, fn. 9; see also Cheveldave v. Tri Palms Unified Owners Ass’n (2018) 27 Cal.App.5th 1202, 1215, fn. 4 [granting judicial notice of the existence of a property deed but not the truth of its contents.]) 

Given the foregoing authorities, the Court will take judicial notice as to the existence of each of the above documents but it declines to take notice of the facts or contentions contained therein or of their proper interpretation.  (Evidence Code § 452(c).)

As to the third cause of action for Respondeat Superior, the Demurrer is sustained without leave to amend. Respondeat Superior is not an independent cause of action. A legal doctrine which affords a basis upon which to collect damages from a party is not a cause of action. (See, McBride v. Boughton (2004) 123 Cal.App.4th 379, 387.) Plaintiffs’ Opposition asserts it can amend the third cause of action “to allege a cause of action for vicarious liability”.  See, Opposition, Page 2, ll. 1-2.  Much like alleging respondeat superior, vicarious liability is also a doctrine of legal liability as opposed to a legitimate cause of action.  It is Plaintiffs’ burden to show the Court the Second Amended Complaint can be amended successfully in order to obtain an order allowing leave to amend. McKenney v. Purepac Pharmaceutical Co. (2008) 167 Cal.App.4th 72, 78; Weil & Brown, Cal. Prac. Guide: Civ. Pro. Before Trial (The Rutter Group 2010), ¶7:130 (citing Goodman v. Kennedy (1976) 18 Cal.3d 335, 349).  As Plaintiffs have failed to show the Court the third cause of action can be amended successfully, leave to amend is denied.  

As to the fourth cause of action for Violation of Civil Code Section 5844, the demurrer is sustained without leave to amend solely as to Plaintiff Greg Bomhoff. This provision’s statutory definition of “member” is not the same as the definition of “member” in the bylaws. The statute requires ownership in order to allege a violation, and Plaintiff Greg Bomhoff acknowledges in the Second Amended Complaint he does not have an ownership interest.

As to the fifth cause of action for Declaratory Relief, the Demurrer is overruled. Such cause of action does not require any kind of relationship between a plaintiff and a defendant. Thus, the standing argument is without merit.

As to the sixth cause of action for breach of the CC&Rs, the Demurrer is overruled. Section 3(e) of the Lake of the Pines Association’s Bylaws states, “Whenever reference is made to the right of the Association to suspend Member privileges, that reference shall be deemed to include and refer to persons in all three classes of Members.” Thus, both members and associate members have the same rights and duties. Accordingly, Plaintiff Greg Bomhoff has standing as to this cause of action.

Finally, Defendant LOP’s alternative requests to strike are granted solely as to those requests consistent with the above ruling.  However, should an amended complaint be filed, this alternative relief will be deemed moot provided the third amended complaint is pled in accordance with the Court’s ruling set forth herein.

Any amended complaint shall be filed and served by July 3, 2025.

Finally, the Court feels compelled to refer Lake of the Pines’ counsel to LR 1.06(A)(8)(i) and (iii).  This defendant filed a 327 page document containing multiple exhibits including exhibits within exhibits without bookmarks and without providing a courtesy copy to the Court.  The Court requests future voluminous filings by any party be filed in accordance with this Court’s local rules.  This paragraph shall not be included in the order after hearing.

 

3.  CU0001527           Julie Swan et al vs. James Valentine

The Court ordered the dismissal of this action without prejudice on February 24, 2025 due to Plaintiffs’ failure to timely serve the defendant with the Summons and Complaint in this matter and failure to show cause as to why the matter should not be so dismissed.  In fact, Plaintiffs’ counsel failed to appear at the OSC re Dismissal.  This was the second time Plaintiffs’ counsel failed to appear at an OSC re Dismissal, and this is the second time Plaintiffs have sought set aside pursuant to CCP 473(b). 

The pending motion was filed on June 2, 2025 alleging as a basis for set aside Plaintiffs’ counsel’s having logged in to an incorrect zoom meeting for the OSC occurring on March 21, 2025.  Just as with the prior motion to set aside dismissal, the current motion and all supporting pleadings are titled as a motion and support for a “Motion to Set Aside Default on Defendant’s Cross-Complaint Pursuant to CCP 473(b)”.  Also, just as with the prior motion, Plaintiffs’ noticed the motion for the Nevada City Branch of the Court despite this matter pending in the Truckee Branch since its inception and despite the Court Clerk correcting the caption in all filings by Plaintiffs thus far to indicate the correct branch and department.

Plaintiffs’ motion is denied without prejudice both on procedural and substantive grounds.  First, this motion was not timely filed pursuant to CCP section 1005(b).  It was required to be filed 16 court days prior to hearing, which was May 29, 2025 (due to the court holiday occurring on June 19, 2025).  (Notably, had the matter been set according to Plaintiffs’ erroneous notice, the filing would have been even more lacking.) Secondly, on the merits, Plaintiff’s counsel provides no explanation for the delay in filing the present motion.  Counsel was well aware of any purported zoom confusion as of March 21, 2025, yet failed to file the present motion until June 2, 2025.  Finally, counsel fails to provide any documentation evidencing the reason behind the purported login to an incorrect zoom meeting.  Counsel asserts “it appears I was given the Zoom information for a separate coutroom [sic].”  See, Declaration, page 3, ll, 7-8. Yet, such indication is vague, and there is no documentation to evidence if, in fact, such occurred. Based on this, the Court cannot find the dismissal of this action was the result of counsel’s mistake, inadvertence or excusable neglect. 

4.  CU0001551           Kaiser Foundation Health Plan, Inc. vs. Michael A Quinn

Plaintiff’s Motion to Reconsider and Correct Clerical Error is granted, and, on the Court’s own motion, the Court orders the Complaint to be similarly corrected NUNC PRO TUNC.  The Court wishes to make clear, it does not find such results in any new opportunity for Defendants to Answer the Complaint or otherwise seek set aside of the default entered against them.

Plaintiff’s request to strike Defendants’ Opposition is denied.  In that Plaintiff seeks something which is arguably beyond that which is sought in the Complaint, the Court finds it is appropriate to allow Defendants to be heard.

While the body of Plaintiff’s Complaint provides for an incorrect house number, the remainder of the body of the Complaint and all of its exhibits have the correct APN and legal description.

As set forth by Black’s Law Dictionary, scrivener's error or clerical error [is defined] as “a drafter or typist's technical error that can be rectified without serious doubt about the correct reading.”  Black's Law Dictionary 659 (10th ed. 2014).

Thus, the Court finds that the scrivner’s error in the body of the complaint may be corrected without serious, let alone any, doubt to reflect the correct street address of “10314.”  Further, the Court finds no prejudice to either defendant in correcting this scrivner’s error nunc pro tunc, in both the complaint and the judgment.

Finally, the Court wishes to clarify its prior order. It appeared to the Court, because the APN and legal description were correct in the Complaint and Judgment, the house number was superfluous and, thus, the Court need not create a new potentially appealable issue by allowing correction to the Judgment.  However, Plaintiff appears to desire this change and has provided persuasive briefing on both the issue or reconsideration and correction.

5.  CU0001911           Celeste Dexter vs. West River Real Estate, Inc., a corporation

Defendant West River’s Motion to Quash is denied without prejudice.  This motion was not timely filed pursuant to CCP section 1005(b).  It was required to be filed 16 court days prior to hearing, which was May 29, 2025 (due to the court holiday on 6/19/25).  The motion was filed on June 3, 2025.  In addition, the motion was not timely served.  Such motion was required to be served (assuming agreement to electronic service) by May 27, 2025.  However, it was not served until June 3, 2025.

The OSC re Dismissal is dismissed on the Court’s own motion.  A proof of service related to the Summons and Complaint is now on file.  Such determination is in no way a comment or finding as to Defendant’s assertion of improper service of same.  However, such is sufficient to preclude dismissal on the basis set forth in the OSC.

6. TCU18-7124          Roxanne T. Jen vs. Michael P. Loney

The unopposed motion for order accepting referee’s final report and to relieve referee is granted as prayed.  No appearances are required.

7.  CU0001529           National Collegiate Student Loan Trust v. Kay

Defendant’s Motion to Compel Answers to the Requests for Admissions and Form Interrogatories is denied as moot as discovery responses were served on May 27, 2025.  

 As to Defendant’s Request for Sanctions, sanctions are denied. Sanctions are a remedy reserved for conduct that reflects bad faith, willful obstruction, or misuse of the discovery process (CCP §2023.030; Clement v. Alegre (2009) 177 Cal.App.4th 1277, 1293.) Though the Court may award sanctions under the Discovery Act in favor of a party who files a motion to compel discovery even if the requested discovery was provided to the moving party after the motion was filed under Cal. Rules of Ct., Rule 3.1030(a), the Court finds the imposition of monetary sanctions would be unjust given Plaintiff’s attempts to request an additional extension and promptly providing discovery responses once alerted to the fact no further extension would be granted. Moreover, the Discovery Act imposes a duty on the moving party to show they have made a “serious attempt to obtain ‘an informal resolution of each issue.’” (DeBlase v. Superior Court (1996) 41 Cal.App.4th 1279, 1284 [49 Cal.Rptr. 2d 229].) Delays which do not materially prejudice the opposing party and are aimed at ensuring accuracy and compliance do not support sanctions (Bahl v. Bank of America (2001) 89 Cal.App.4th 389, 398.) Accordingly, Defendant’s requests for sanctions are denied.  

 Finally, the Court notes no declaration in support of the present motion was filed.  Counsel for Defendant is admonished it is improper to simply attach exhibits to a memorandum of points and authorities.  This paragraph shall not be included in the order after hearing. 

These are the Court’s tentative rulings.  In order to argue at the hearing, you must notify the parties and, thereafter, notify the clerk’s office by email at TRCounter@nccourt.net or by calling (530)362-4309 by 4:00 p.m. the court day prior to the date and time set for hearing.  If you do not so notify all other parties and the Court, the tentative ruling shall become the final ruling of the Court.  Any argument is limited to five (5) minutes per party, unless the Court determines additional argument time is needed.  See California Rule of Court 3.1308, Local Rule 4.05.3.

Personal appearances are permitted.  You may also appear via video by arranging a remote appearance at the time notice of request for oral argument.

Unless the Court orders otherwise, the Court will not be able to provide court reporters for probate or civil law and motion hearings and does not provide court reporters for case management conferences.  Any litigant who wants a record of a law and motion matter or a case management conference must arrange for the presence of a court reporter at his or her expense.  See Local Rule 10.00.3 B.

FOR ALL LAW AND MOTION MATTERS, UNLESS OTHERWISE ORDERED, THE PREVAILING PARTY SHALL SUBMIT A FORMAL ORDER SETTING OUT VERBATIM THE TENTATIVE RULING ANNOUNCED HEREIN (OR THE ORDER OF THE COURT FOLLOWING ORAL ARGUMENT SHOULD IT DIFFER FROM THE TENTATIVE RULING) IN COMPLIANCE WITH CALIFORNIA RULE OF COURT 3.1312 AND SHALL, THEREAFTER, PREPARE, FILE AND SERVE NOTICE OF THE ORDER PURSUANT TO THE RULE OF COURT.
