In The Matter of Viridiana Rivera
PETITION FOR CHANGE OF NAME
Motion type
Parties
Ruling
Generally, it is an abuse of discretion for a court to deny leave to amend where there is any reasonable possibility that a Plaintiff can state a good cause of action. (Goodman v. Kennedy (1976) 18 Cal.3d 335, 349.) The Court finds such reasonable possibility here. Therefore, the demurrer is SUSTAINED WITH LEAVE TO AMEND.
