Plaintiff’s Motion for Order that Matters in Request for Admissions be Deemed Admitted Pursuant to CCP 2033.280
Plaintiff moves to have its first set of requests for admissions deemed admitted. However, the time to have discovery motions heard concluded on August 18, 2025, as trial was originally set for September 2, 2025. (Code Civ. Proc., § 2024.020, subd. (a).) The trial continuances do not reopen discovery proceedings. (Id. at subd. (b).) Nor has plaintiff moved to reopen the discovery proceedings.
Accordingly, plaintiff’s motion is denied.
