KEVIN VED VS. TRI VAN LE ET AL

Real Property/Housing Court Law and Motion Calendar for July 23, 2026. Line 12. PLAINTIFF KEVIN VED Notice Of Renewed Motion And Motion For Order Deeming Matters Admitted (Set Two) And To Compel Initial Responses To Special Interrogatories (Set Two); Request For Terminating, Evidentiary And Monetary Sanctions is DENIED.

Plaintiff has not provided any evidence of the date the discovery was purportedly served, nor any copies of the discovery requests at issue. Additionally, as Plaintiff admits he has received responses to the discovery, the severe remedies of deemed admissions and terminating and evidentiary sanctions are not appropriate.

Plaintiff cites no authority for the proposition that the copy of the proof of service that is enclosed with the served documents, i.e. before the service has been completed, must be signed, or that failure to include a signed proof of service with the served documents invalidates the service that has admittedly occurred.

Finally, the Court notes that while a declaration in opposition to this motion was filed on July 22,2026, proof of service reflects that the opposition was served on the pro per Plaintiff by electronic means only, and there does not appear to be any express consent to electronic service on file. Therefore, the opposition was not considered. =(501/CFH)
