8 Morrissey vs. Min
2022-01285505 Motion for an Order Appointing Matthew L. Taylor as Partition Referee
Plaintiff Marcia Morrissey’s unopposed motion for an order appointing Matthew L. Taylor as partition referee is granted.
On or about 7/21/25, the Court entered an Interlocutory Judgment stating that, “a qualified and bonded referee, who name shall be provided by Plaintiff, will be appointed for the purpose of managing, maintaining, and selling the Real Property.” (ROA 97.) By this motion, Plaintiff proposes the appointment of Matthew L. Taylor, a licensed attorney. (ROA 105.)
Among other qualifications and experience, Mr. Taylor attests he has “served as Receiver, Judge Pro Tem, Partition Referee and Special Master for the California Superior Court System” and has “worked directly as the Receiver and a Receiver’s agent, supervising day-today operations of properties and companies in receivership...” (Taylor Decl. at ¶¶ 2-3, Exh. A.) In his capacity as “both Receiver and Partition Referee [he has] sold dozens of real properties for the court system in the past few years” and is “currently either Receiver or Referee in more than 10 matters with several properties currently listed for private sale under court supervision.” (Taylor Decl. at ¶ 5.)
Further, Mr. Taylor attests that he is “not a party to this action,” does “not represent any parties to this action,” and is “not related to any judge of the Court by consanguinity or affinity within the third degree.” He does “not personally know any of the parties in this action.” (Taylor Decl. at ¶ 8.) Thus, the Court finds Mr. Taylor is not ineligible to serve as partition referee for the subject real property. (See Code Civ. Proc., § 873.050.)
Plaintiff shall give notice of the ruling.
