(a)(1).) In addition, “[t]he party must attach to the document presented for filing a proof of service showing service on each person or entity required to be served. . . .” (CRC, Rule 8.817, subd. (a)(2).) “Proof of service of the moving papers must be filed no later than five court days before the time appointed for the hearing.” (CRC, Rule 3.1300, subd. (c).)
Here, Defendant has failed to file a valid proof of service of the motion on the opposing party. Therefore, the hearing is continued to allow Defendant to properly serve and file the motion and proof of service in accordance with the Code.
Defendant shall serve the motion and supporting documents no later than July 17, 2026, and file a proof of service with the court within 5 days of service.
Plaintiff is urged to familiarize himself with the Rules of Court as well as the Code of Civil Procedure. “Mere self- representation is not a ground for exceptionally lenient treatment. Except when a particular rule provides otherwise, the rules of civil procedure must apply equally to parties represented by counsel and those who forgo attorney representation.” (Rappleyea v. Campbell (1994) 8 Cal.4th 975, 984-985.)
Clerk shall provide notice of this ruling.
