APHRM CORPORATION, ET AL | Court Date: | | 2025-12-09 09:00 AM | Calendar Matter: | | FURTHER HEARING RE: MOTION TO COMPEL COMPLIANCE WITH THE COURT'S PRIOR DISCOVERY ORDER | Rulings: | | On the Law and Motion/Discovery calendar for December 9, 2025, line 6. FURTHER HEARING RE: MOTION TO COMPEL COMPLIANCE WITH THE COURT'S PRIOR DISCOVERY ORDER.
Plaintiffs' motion to compel Sean Coletta, Sharon Coletta, and S4 Developments, LLC to make further discovery and pay sanctions is granted.
Plaintiffs' motion originally came on for hearing on September 15, 2025. In an order signed that day, the court granted the motion in part and continued the motion for further hearing in light of defendants' counsel's representation of diligent efforts to locate and produce responsive documents. The court set a further briefing schedule.
Plaintiffs' brief and declaration indicates that, notwithstanding the court's order and counsel's representation, no further discovery has been made. The court's September 15, 2025 order remains effective. The court further orders defendants to produce all outstanding responsive documents by December 31, 2025. Noncompliance with discovery orders may subject a party to evidentiary, issue, and terminating sanctions.
The court grants plaintiffs' reasonable sanctions request and orders defendants (jointly and severally) to pay $4802.50 to plaintiffs within 30 days of notice of entry of this order.
