DEFENDANT SHAVON BUTLER Motion To Set Case For Trial; Motion For Trial Preference (Ccp 369(E)); And Motion For Monetary And Issue Sanctions is DENIED, as follows:
Motion to set case for trial is DENIED because a motion is not the proper procedure to set this case for trial. Defendant is directed to serve and file and serve a Request to Set Case for Trial-Unlawful Detainer, Judicial Council Form UD-150. The filing of this form is mandatory to set this case for trial. The Court notes that while Defendant filed a proof of service on May 14, 2026, indicating that a UD-150 form was served on Plaintiff's counsel, it does not appear this UD-150 form has been filed with the Court.
Motion for trial setting preference under CCP 36(e) is DENIED without prejudice. In the moving papers, Defendant variously asks for trial to be set within 120 days and within 7 days. It is unclear to the Court which Defendant is requesting. To the extent Defendant requests that trial be set within 120 days, preference should not be necessary for this requests as this is an unlawful detainer action which is already entitled to preferential setting upon the filing of a proper UD-150 form. To the extent Defendant requests that trial be set within 7 days, the showing offered by Defendant at this time does not satisfy the Court that setting this action for trial on this short of time will serve the interests of justice.
Motion for sanctions in connection with discovery is DENIED without prejudice. No proof of service of the discovery at issue has been provided.
