To grant the petition to approve the compromised claim of minor Gabriella Lopez. (Code of Civil Proc., § 372; Probate Code, § 2504.) Petitioner is directed to file new proposed orders within five days of service of the order by the clerk. No appearances necessary.
To set a status conference for Tuesday, October 13, 2026, at 3:30 p.m. in Department 502, for confirmation of deposit of the funds into a blocked account.

If oral argument is timely requested, it will be entertained on Thursday, July 16 2026, at 3:30 p.m. in Department 502.

Pursuant to California Rules of Court, rule 3.1312(a), and Code of Civil Procedure section 1019.5, subdivision (a), no further written order is necessary.
