Ruling
App. 4th 1424, 1434 (2011).
Here, the Court finds no substantial justification for Defendants’ failure to satisfy the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 2016.040(b). However, while the Civil Discovery Act authorizes sanctions for a party's failure to make a good-faith effort to meet and confer in person, by telephone, or by videoconference before seeking court intervention, the Court finds no corresponding provision in Chapter 7 of the Act that renders sanctionable a party's failure to confer regarding the retention of a certified shorthand reporter. See Cal. Civ. Proc. Code § 2023.010(i). Thus, the Court finds that sanctions are not proper.
Accordingly, the Court DENIES Defendant’s motions.
The Court orders the Clerk to give notice.
