Defendant Joseph Wilson’s request for judicial notice is GRANTED. (Evid. Code, §§ 452, subds. (c) and (h), 453.)
Defendant’s demurrer to plaintiff Sunset Village’s complaint is OVERRULED. (Code Civ. Proc., § 430.10, subd. (e).) Defendant has failed to show, through matters on the face of the complaint or judicially noticeable, that plaintiff’s complaint does not state facts sufficient to constitute a cause of action. (Ibid.; see Blank v. Kirwan (1985) 39 Cal.3d 311, 318; see also Donabedian v. Mercury Ins. Co. (2004) 116 Cal.App.4th 968, 994.) Defendant has failed to show that the person named on the notice is a corporation. (City of Alameda v. Sheehan (2024) 105 Cal.App.5th 68, 81-82.)
As the Court is overruling defendant’s demurrer, defendant’s request to dismiss is DENIED. (Code Civ. Proc., § 581, subd. (f)(1).)
Defendant is ordered to file their answer by July 1, 2026. (Code Civ. Proc., §§ 586, subd. (a)(2), 1167.3.)
