SF Superior Court - Real Property / Housing Dept 501 - CGC24619833 - December 11, 2025 Hearing date: December 11, 2025 Case number: CGC24619833 Case title: RACHEL T. LIN VS. JEFFREY CHEN ET AL Case Number: | | CGC24619833 | Case Title: | | RACHEL T. LIN VS. JEFFREY CHEN ET AL | Court Date: | | 2025-12-11 09:30 AM | Calendar Matter: | | MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT | Rulings: | | Real Property/Housing Court Law and Motion Calendar for December 11, 2025. Line 3. DEFENDANT BRIAN MI MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT; is DENIED.

Moving party failed to shift its burden. The Court notes that defendant only moved for summary judgment, not for summary adjudication. Separate Statement appears to repeat the same 10 facts 10 times. Motion is supported only by declaration of Brain Mi. Paragraph 4 of Mi declaration lacks foundation. This paragraph is listed as the sole source of evidence of Fact 5. No evidence whatsoever is provided by the moving party that the fire was not caused by Mi's "family, invitees, and guests." Furthermore, there is a triable issue of fact regarding the responsible party for the damages caused by fire in the leased unit. =(501/SKF)
