Because the subpoena is drafted to primarily seek documents outside the scope of discovery, the motion to quash is GRANTED.
The court exercises its discretion under Code of Civil Procedure section 1987.2 to GRANT the accompanying request for sanctions in the amount of $3,260 (8 hours at $400 per hour plus a $60 filing fee.)
Lejnieks is directed to give notice.

O’Campo – Probate 30-2024-01426035 Motion to Void Deed 12 Petitioner Terry Galvan-Ortiz’s Motion to Void Deed (ROA 89) is DENIED.
As an initial matter, the motion is procedurally defective because no proof of service has been filed. (Cal. Rules of Court, rule 3.1300(c) [“Proof of service of the moving papers must be filed no later than five court days before the time appointed for the hearing].)
Further, the parties who Petitioner asserts took the property by deed, i.e., Wiliam O’Campo and, subsequently, Jose Mariano Santiago Garcia and Ventura Santiago Garcia, are not before this court and have no notice of this proceeding.
Finally, the motion raises evidentiary issues that should be addressed by a petition pursuant to Probate Code section 850.
For the foregoing reasons, the motion is DENIED.
The court will give notice.
